Any experience with Pangolin?
-
I have yet to get headscale to work with my system. No turnkey setup, instructions that lack clarity, and in the end... idk how it's supposed to do the thing.
I did manage to get it to work, but I recall it took me a while. I have several devices connected to it now though. I'm keenly looking forward to the autogroup:self ACL support so I can set up sensible ACLs and share my net with some mates - I only have my own devices on it right now.
Anything I can share that might help your understanding?

I think Pangolin works a bit differently... Correct me if I'm wrong...
Where headscale is a coordination server for a wireguard mesh, pangolin is a reverse proxy server that connects to the backend services via wireguard tunnels

Hi fellow homelabbers! I hope your day / night is going great.
Just stubled across this self-hosted cloudflare tunnel alternernative called Pangolin.
-
Does anyone use it for exposing their homelab? It looks awesome, but I've never heard of it before.
-
Should I be reluctant since it's developed by a US-based company? I mean security-wise. (I'll remove this question if it's too political.)
-
Does anyone know of alternatives pieces or stacks or software that achieve the same without relying on cloudflare?
Your insights are highly appreciated!
Using pangolin to serve a bunch of services from my homelab. It’s great.

Pangolin is the most user friendly self hosted alternative to Cloudflare tunnels. There are dozens alternatives, but none with that feature set and such a UI.
Thanks for the list! Do you use Pangolin yourself?

No, since at the moment it wants to manage certificates, but I don't intend to run pangolin as my main reverse proxy.

Using it for several weeks now. Very happy with it, especially now that it is integrated with OAuth, so SSO for getting through Pangolin itself and then on all the services it routes to.

I love headscale. I use it for subnet routing. I have a server in the cloud with NGINX for reverse proxy and the a subnet router at home that just routes internal stuff so I just use the local IP for the backend service and it just works.

Every system I can run headscale on I need to do it via an nginx reverse proxy

That sounds awesome! No issues at all so far?

Pangolin is my next homelab project. I can't wait to give it a go. If anyone has any advise or guides it'd be appreciated
I don't know of alternatives
Pangolin, while u.s. based does not appear to serve the state of its interests
I am not aware of a direct peer, but tailscale, a bastion hosting a direct VPN or remote reverse proxy to your homelab are all similar. Pangolin seemingly combines the best and more of these scenarios

Yes you need a way to expose it over https. A reverse proxy is easiest. I use Caddy.

Lawerence systems has a recent video that is pretty indepth.

None so far.
And I am using pretty much all the features.It is also great for my current migration from docker compose to kubernetes.
A newt client on both and I can just switch on the pangolin side.
