This is another self-note that I am publishing in my journey of setting up a Home Lab. You can set up Jellyfin in TrueNAS itself, but given my proxmox setup, I have TrueNAS running in a VM and have LXC running Jellyfin…and I want them to talk.
Why/What? We’re going to mount a pool in TrueNAS within Jellyfin so you can put all your movies/shows in that pool and then have them show up in Jellyfin....
I’ve been in the process of setting up Home Labs for both myself and my parents. One surprisingly annoying issue has been accessing these servers externally (for VPN access and enabling webhooks for things like Home Assistant). I am documenting the steps I took mostly for myself, but hopefully it helps a few folks as well.
Note: for folks using just Home Assistant standalone, I would use the DuckDNS integration. I am doing this because I have multiple containers that need reverse proxy access....
