VITAS, Thomas should I use a reverse proxy for my local znc server (if I want to enable access to it from the internet)?
<
VITAS>
arent reveres proxys mainly for http?
<
VITAS>
what you would need is port forwarding
<
VITAS>
if that isnt possible you need to havesome sort of vpn to some public host and do the forwarding there
<
RockyTV>
what about the webpanel?
<
VITAS>
it still relys on the original ip and port to be reachable by the reverse proxy
<
VITAS>
If you want to use a subdomain for the ZNC-Webinterface, you have to create a Reverse Proxy with your webserver.
<
RockyTV>
so the reverse proxy here is only allowing a subdomain to be used to access the webpanel
<
VITAS>
so it isnt about making it reachable
<
VITAS>
see my text above
<
RockyTV>
I made it reachable
<
RockyTV>
just wanted to know if it increases security over the webpanel
<
VITAS>
it could be usefull if their webserver implementation has flaws
<
VITAS>
or to protect from dos attacks
<
VITAS>
i would rate it at: nice addition but not essential
<
VITAS>
i would use some well established reverseproxy if i would do it
<
VITAS>
so e.g. apache ngnix trafficserver
<
RockyTV>
another question
<
RockyTV>
chroot is pretty much an isolation for the desired process, right? kinda like a container for the process
<
VITAS>
more like jails
<
VITAS>
it shares more with the host than containers do
<
VITAS>
its a sandbox
<
VITAS>
whats the question?
<
RockyTV>
if it's sandboxed, does it mean that if something affects that chroot, it won't affect the whole host?
<
VITAS>
yes but stuff that changes the host changes the chroot
<
VITAS>
e.g. changed libs
<
RockyTV>
so chroot can't change host
<
VITAS>
thats the idear
<
VITAS>
i still would suggest real containers unless you want to let others ssh into them
