Thank you so much for such a detailed reply. I'm going to print this off and go through it point by point.
I didn't realize how overwhelming this would be, the amount of information is incredible.
I was trying to use the cloud flare ai assistant to set up WARP access to my phone but then I realized its basically another VPN which defeats the whole point on me using the domain because I wanted to be able to use my traditional VPN to stay protected.
I also wanted to be able to log into my server android apps like immich and Joplin but can't do that with authentication as its not a webpage.
I'll print this off and anything I don't understand (most of it at this stage haha) I'll spend some time studying it.
I got a good laugh at peepee poopoo
Thanks again
Speaking from experience, it was quite overwhelming to me at first as well. It took me a handful of tries to wrap my head around Cloudflare Tunnels/Zero Trust. I persisted tho, and succeeded. It doesn't help much that Cloudflare keeps rearranging their site, making it difficult to find necessary information. I will say, that when I migrated to a new server recently, it was a snap and everything clicked in place. There was no need to set up anything on their side. As I remember, it was a matter of a one liner code sequence they provided, to install the necessary components on my server. Jack's a doughnut, Bob's your uncle.
Yeah I've noticed that. A lot of the tutorials for learning cloudflare are with older GUI
I actually just updated it slightly, and may continue to do so if I think of things. So you may simply want to check back here instead of printing it.
Thank you again
