Thinlinc behind a reverse proxy?

I’ve been messing with Guacamole and Kasm, but i find both to be unstable and hard to maintain. Thinlinc on the other hand seems much easier, and so far it hasn’t crashed :slight_smile:

I am trying to make it accessable for remote workers, running it behind Caddy. But after i login, it goes from https://thinlinc.domain.tld to https://192.168.1.1:300/agent

Which obviously doesnt work outside the building. Has anyone successfully made it work? Or am i overlooking something?

Have you tried changing agent_hostname in vsmagent.hconf to a hostname that is resolveable (and reachable) by your client machines?

If its unset, it will default to the server’s primary ip.

i came across this in the NAT documentation yes, i’m not conviced yet it will not redirect to https://thinlinc.domain.tld:300 yet (cant test it right now), but in the worst case i can forward that port too.
I was hoping to stick everything behind a well configured Caddy server though :slight_smile:

The port will remain, yes. Then you would have to configure the proxy software to rewrite that part before the response is sent back to the clients.
