I’m using Heimdall to easily access my self hosted stuff ATM. I would like for my family to use them too if they’re so inclined, but there’s no way they will be able to remember the IP addresses, I know I can’t!

Is it a DNS I’m looking for? If so, I’m already hosting a couple of instances of Adguard, can I just set it so that Plex is 192.xxx.x.47 and snapdrop is 192.xxx.x.53 and use that to resolve the request so my 13 year old can just type Plex into his browser and find it?

Or do I need something like Caddy or Nginx or something in between?

Thanks for any advice.

    Ace! Thanks. There’s so much to delve into in networking, it’s a bit daunting tbh.

    That’s why I asked, when you know a little but not a lot it’s hard trying to figure out where to look.

    At least by asking I have some ideas where to start poking my nose.
