DNS Not Forwarding IP!
Been trying for hours to make it so I can host my public website on that given domain… yet nothing works
The public ip for my server works just fine, and nothing else is occupying port 3000. Also, pinging “molerate.com” (my domain) recieves and gives packets.., so what gives?
I’m not sure if this was the right place to ask this but it’s all I could find 😦

Honestly, I would recommend here to ditch the tailscale middleman and use a Cloudflare tunnel on the server directly in this case. They're super easy to setup https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/connections/connect-networks/
Issue is, my router does not allow port forwaring
It’s extremely annoying
😭
Cloudflare tunnels don't need port forwarding 🙂
if you go to your zero-trust dashboard, it will even give you the commands to spin up a tunnel
Oh, amazing!
Whats zero trust?
I didn’t know what it meant
its what Cloudflare calls their security-centric products
Ahhhh got it
My stupid ass thought it was for trusted users on this discord to see more private info LOL
the term is used mainly because it implies that you give no user any trust by default until they authenticate and are explicitly authorized to use a resource
anyways, this page is your friend here https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/connections/connect-networks/get-started/create-remote-tunnel/
That sounds very good lol
Is it good for publishing the websites? I got my home server end all done and ready
Thank u ❤️
Much appreciated
yep, Cloudflare tunnels are meant for production websites
Do i need to pay again? Or does it all work from my cloudflare domain dashboard ?
Nope, there is a free tier. It will not auto-charge you however I believe you need a card/paypal account on file
Got it okay
Thank u! Ill update back here in a few hours to show you how it goes!
Been at this for WEEKS lol
