Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

DNS doesn't deal with ports, it resolves hostnames to IP addresses and that's it.
What you probably need is some kind of reverse proxy that sits outside of your network, listens on port 443 and then directs it to your home IP address on port 12400.
I'd say Nginx Proxy Manager is the easiest reverse proxy I've used.
Sure, but the point is not so much about which one to use but that the terminating point listening on 443 should sit outside of his network.
So he will either need a cloud service, or accept that he will have to add
:12400to his URLs.
