can you boot a server if someone tries to connect
-
Thanks! I use wake on lan to boot at a certain time. I also found an app via which I can boot the server via wake on lan. But it would be nice if it could wake up just by requesting the service
That's how it works. Wake-on-LAN wakes the computer if the computer receives a network request. Which is the same thing you're asking for, right?

Sorry for not having expressed what I did.
I wrote a podman compose file, pulled the caddy image, wrote a caddyfile, started it and tried to connect to a service via subdomain.domain.tld .The caddyfile contains my http and tls ports and the domain and ip for the reverse proxy routing according to the docs.
Did you setup DNS to point to your caddy sever?

You'll probably get better help if you post your config and any logs. Caddy may not log an entry to a file but you can watch the console logs to see everything (
podman logs caddyor similar.) -

Yes, it works with nginxproxymanager. There's probably something going on with selinux - I may disable it the next time to test the assumption.

Is your caddy container network set to host? Or at least set to a network which is on the same network as your proxied services?
Ensure that nginx is stopped, and if the domain doesn't work, attempt to direct connect using your servers IP address and the correct port. If you still can't connect, check your firewall rules.

That sounds more or less to be exactly what I'm doing with NPM currently. I don't see how it's easier to configure as all I did was fire up the NPM container, log in, and add my host targets.
Caddy can do the same and there is a steep learning curve but I switched about a year ago and only need to touch the config file when I add a host. Can even bring that config to a new server and it will stand up once it starts and picks up the config.

Thx, thats not it

But it has to be a magic packet, not just any ole request.

If you have a reverse proxy running on the mini pc and handling jellyfin.y.com then there is this plugin which will send the WoL packet to the jellyfin server when a request is sent.
Thanks again! I managed to set up caddy and it works well so far. Now I am stuck at installing (or using xcaddy. I installed go and the package xcaddy but to me the doc lacks one or two steps. Do you know any tutorial covering that? Thanks!
