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.

    There are minecraft reverse proxies, so, yes, a http proxy will not work, but the general idea is still viable and doable with very little effort.

    Set up a few domains all resolving to one IP. Run itzg/minecraft-router and use that to proxy the traffic to different servers based on the domain.

    Also, they don’t even need a reverse proxy, but just resolve the domain name to the IP (in the simple case of one domain name per I0). That can be accomplished by hosting their own dns server, editing the hosts file or just pointing a public dns record at the private ip address, which will only work in their network,l.
