Is your Radarr and Sonarr behind a VPN? As I mentioned before Radarr, Sonarr, and NZBGet are all running behind my NordVPN connection and I am unable to access them from the local LAN.

Forgot to add that this is on Ubuntu Desktop which from my reading does not play nice with .NET.

Ah I see, do the DNS is just really a labelling facility? Instead of x.xxx.xxx.x, you can access via www.amateur.com? I guess that Plex, being a company, already operate DNS as my remote access would be plex.tv/desktop.

So with Microsoft IIS, Windows will auto-patch for me as it does with updates etc.

Hmm. So I can open my Ombi to the internet (for family to access) if I simply port forward in my router? I guess the reason not to do this is that I can't add my own HTTPS to it and so it's unfiltered access to my IP?

- Oh I just meant when following your guide, you only mentioned about port 80 (line 40) and adding the server_name domain, so I assumed you also mean to edit port 443 server_name domain (line 69).

- Yea I had to manually open port on windows firewall for 443, took me a little while to figure it out, but was easy to understand.

- In my stupidity, I forgot about UPnP in my router config, it automatically opens ports for me, I had to disable it and re-enable it and it was gone, don't really know why it was there, but the only one opened auto in UPnP was 32400 (as an internal) and some 5 digit port (external) I'm assuming its automatically opened via Plex Media Server, when going into PMS settings -> Remote Connection, it shows the external IP and the corresponding Port external (not 32400) so I just left it there in UPnP

​

so when doing myDomain.com:EXTERNAL_PORT (PMS remote) it takes me to plex.tv auth, so I assume its ok here.

Seriously, without those guides, I'd never achieve this! Really appreciate it, bookmarking it for future reference.

>you can still connect directly to your Ombi instance bypass Cloudflare

That's easy enough to fix. On your firewall or on the server only allow connections from known cloudflare ip addresses to port 443.

>Also note any communications between your server and Cloudflare are not encrypted/subject to SSL, only from Cloudflare to the user

Fix this by installing a Cloudflare certificate on the server and it now is encrypted end to end

Yes, Thank you. I went to ombi.io and clicked "download".Which then took me to GitHub. I downloaded the mac link (OSX.tar.gz) to my MacBook, and that's it. I renamed the file "ombi" (because I read somewhere to do that) but that's as far as I got. I tried to do some other stuff, using my "terminal" and trying to get to it to open the file and execute it, but nothing. That's all I've got.

Ah right okay! Cheers for the clarrification.

Would there be any scope to be able to define a specific image to appear in that location, rather than the image in the customisation settings?
Reasoning, I've got a banner style logo like this set up currently.
I've got a seperate icon style logo set up as the website favicon (Also the same icon style logo I've got set up for the email profile) and would like to use for profile image replacement - Along the same lines as this.
Rather than having my larger banner style logo shrunk down to the same size as the current profile image displayed.

here is the information i used to help me out, it was very helpful and you didnt have to install anything. It utilizes the existing web server and the virtual hosts within it.

There really isn't a guide per se but what you're looking for is a reverse proxy. https://github.com/tidusjar/Ombi/wiki/Reverse-Proxy-Examples this should get you started.

https://certbot.eff.org/ This is how you secure it with a free ssl cert.

First result on google for reverse proxy, and it should be what your looking for. Make sure your formatting is correct for the config file, remember to properly set base URL paths in the apps and use https. Then close all of he individual ports you opened

I apologize - I missed the part about it running behind NordVPN. I am not sure how you would proceed in this case.

I have my NGINX server running on a Digital Ocean droplet, which connects via VPN back to my LAN at home, so that my home IP is never exposed directly to the internet. I was reading too quickly and didn't notice your actual setup. Sorry for the confusion.

Steps to take:

1. Get a VPN (I recommend AirVPN or PIA) (Yes you'll have to pay for that it's just 5 buck/month)
2. Learn how to torrent. You need a download client like Deluge and a torrent tracker( I can't go into detail here. Just google torrent rackers)
3. Install Plex,Emby(my favorite) ,Jellyfin or Kodi. Learn how to add media to the mediaserver of your choice and so on.

You should do this for a couple of weeks so you understand the process. Quality, Ratios, hard drive space, internet speed and so on.

Once you understand all the above and it has become a repetitive boring task of doing everything manualy Your ready for step 4.

1. Install Radarr and Sonarr and learn how to use it.

2. Once you Reached this point you will easily be able to install ombi.

3. Learn how a reverse proxy works and how to set up a dynamic DNS

Do it in that order. Don't ask on details on steps 1-4 on this sub because it's the wrong place
