I thought I was going to use Authentik for this purpose but it just seems to redirect to an otherwise Internet accessible page. I’m looking for a way to remotely access my home network at a site like remote.mywebsite.com. I have Nginx proxy forwarding with SSL working appropriately, so I need an internal service that receives the traffic, logs me in, and passes me to services I don’t want to expose to the Internet.

My issue with Authentik is if I need to access questionable internal websites I have to make an Internet accessible subdomain. I don’t want authentik.mywebsite.com to redirect to totallyillegal.mywebsite.com. I want it to redirect to 10.1.1.30:8787.

Is there anything that does that?

You need a wildcard cert for ypur subdoman:

*.legal.example.com

Then point that record to 127.0.0.0. This will not resolve for anyone. But you’ll have an internal dns enty (useig pihole/adguard/unbound) that redirects to your reverse proxy.

You could also point to your revers proxy internal address instead of 127.0.0.0.
