My ISP provide me with good IPv6 connection with support of opening ports how I like. But IPv4 is behind a CGNAT and makes me unable to host a service on the legacy Internet.
Unfortunetely some of my friends I want to host (Jellyfin and Nextcloud) for does not have modern Internet connection, so I have to put some proxy.
Now I need suggestions of a solution. VPN on some VPS they would need to connection to is one of them, but it should be as simple for them to use as possible.
You’ll want to install a reverse proxy of your choice on the VPS. Have clients access it over ipv4 and configure it to proxy pass it to your ipv6 address. Nginx at least is capable of doing ipv4 & ipv6 -> ipv4, I think the inverse should also be possible.
