Remote access & external links

For remote access, rumahl recommends VPN solutions: Tailscale (easiest start) or WireGuard. This keeps all connections end-to-end encrypted, without opening ports on your router.

Setting up a VPN

1. 1Install Tailscale on your rumahl device (or configure WireGuard under /etc/wireguard).
2. 2Settings → Remote access shows the tunnel status (tailnet IP, online/offline).
3. 3On the road: connect your device to the same tailnet and open http://<tailnet-ip>:8126.

Sharing files externally

1. 1In the Files app: context menu → Create external link.
2. 2The link is valid for 72 hours and prefers the tailnet IP when Tailscale is online.
3. 3Optional: set an external base URL with your domain (Settings → Remote access).
