Setting reversed proxy

I removed the check on web2

@varazir
What did stats page LastChk say when it was down? (hover over it with your mouse)

PiBa

@varazir
Instead of this

use_backend Octoprint_ipvANY  if  Octoprint

make that like:

use_backend Octoprint_ipvANY  if !{ req.ssl_hello_type 1 } !{ req.len 0 }

That is from the config file trying to find how to set it in the GUI :P

varazir

@piba When it's working it say Layer7 check passed: OK

PiBa

@varazir
You already wrote 'Octoprint' in that same textfield you can put the other acl text..

As for above maint line it looks like the 'zwave' servername might not resolve DNS easily to a IP? That shouldnt depend on the type of check used anyhow.. Perhaps give it a few seconds more to resolve? And the check again? A L7 check that passes would be good..

varazir

@piba Well I have to look at the openVPN tomorrow, getting late.

Thanks for your help

varazir

@piba

Where should I place in the GUI this again ? Front or back end ?

use_backend Octoprint_ipvANY  if !{ req.ssl_hello_type 1 } !{ req.len 0 }

PiBa

@varazir
Where in the gui did you write 'Octoprint'?

( For a Frontend - action ? )

--Edit--
Though i think i got your backends mixed up.
Should use the special acl for the 'openvpn' action acl name.

Word of warning: Make extra sure that you do not expose OctoPrint to the Internet. It is not designed to do that. Keep it locked behind a VPN.

Personally, I run haproxy directly on my OctoPrint Pis (and acme.sh to do the certs). It only takes a very small/simple config. Much more secure that way.

Front end but it's OpenVPN that is the issue. It's on the same port on pfSense.

Octoprint back/frontend works fine
I changed to IP and now the health check works much better.

ya I read that.
Octopi comes with HAProxy, I have setup a extra authentication. Using acl / http-request auth not sure if it's enoufe or there are other things that is not designed.

How can you open port 80/443 to several hosts that using certbot ?

jimp

If it's protected by at least some kind of auth it may be OK, but I still would prefer to keep it behind a VPN.

As for certbot, that would probably just get routed based on the requested hostname. Should work with plain http and some ACLs. I use acme.sh and DNS-01 challenges though, I do not want any inbound web requests hitting my Pis.

@varazir
Yes sorry i mixed up your backends/acls.. Where i wrote octoprint i ment openvpn at least for the last few posts..

use_backend Openvpn_ipvANY  if  !{ req.ssl_hello_type 1 } !{ req.len 0 }

Anyhow still location to put that is the frontend/action acl-name.

Now everything works.

I'm looking at the script I was using the command line that came with Let's Encrypt and this guide

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-secure-haproxy-with-let-s-encrypt-on-ubuntu-14-04

This all started more or less with getting the Lets encrypt not needing to do a portforward each time.

If you are going to run all the haproxy bits on pfSense there is a script you can use to hook into the ACME package to handle all of that locally for any hostname.

Hmm don't understand what it dose.

So I still run the rewnew/setup on the host on then LAN ?

jimp

The ACME package on pfSense would handle all of the certs, haproxy on pfSense would offload all SSL tasks from local devices. So for example you'd connect https to the firewall and it would hand off http to the octopi backend.

That may not be exactly what you're after but it would be an easy centralized solution.

varazir

@jimp Hmm sound much easier. Like the idea.
I guess I need to remake the backends on the current setup right ?

I guess that will not work when I use https internal ?
