I use Crafty Controller for Minecraft. I have a server running at 192.168.50.16:25540. I want it to resolve to minecraft.example.com. I have Nginx Proxy Manager setup for my domain and can access it from inside my network, but it’d be nice to be able to use a domain instead.

NPM only has options for http and https, so is this even possible using NPM?

EDIT: this is for only internal access I have external access via tailscale.

    If your looking to access it outside your LAN, you’re gonna want to open up the correct ports on your router’s firewall.

      No I’m not.

      I have tailscale setup for external access. (I have dns records already in my domain provider pointing to a tailscale ip, so a device on my tailnet can access my domain. ie an authorized tailscale device can access nginx.example.com)

      I want to know what I have to do to get minecraft.example.com to resolve interenally.

        I have to admit, I’m a bit confused.

        Since your domain resolves to an internal private Tailscale IP and your question is how to access using the domain, locally…. I feel like there’s an error in your architecture here. Wouldn’t any device that is on your Tailscale private network already have access using the domain name? If by “resolve internally” you mean hosts on your LAN, not connected to Tailscale scale? How would that be possible if it resolves to a Tailscale IP. If you have control of your DNS on your LAN, you could simply add an override and point it to the LAN address of the Minecraft server.
