Hi
I was wondering if this is also working with reverse proxy. I don’t open port 5001 directly to my NAS because of security, but instead I’m using reverse proxy for especially my docker containers which need access from the internet.
So do you think this would work?

Edit:
I tried the alternative method with the route in the openvpn file and it worked, but then my reverse proxy stop working. When I disable the multiple gateway pref reverse proxy was working again but then the route didn't work.
So I found out that if I add this to my openvpn config file it works as supposed. I can use DDNS and reverse proxy for internet access to my NAS and VPN is connected.

route-nopull
route 192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0

Figured I'd share an alternate approach; if your using OpenVPN you can modify the OVPN file and add the routes there using the name, I do this for plex as well:

route plex.tv 255.255.255.255 192.168.50.1
route app.plex.tv 255.255.255.255 192.168.50.1
route my.plexapp.com 255.255.255.255 192.168.50.1
route myplex.tv 255.255.255.255 192.168.50.1
route synology.me 255.255.255.255 192.168.50.1
route ddns.synology.com 255.255.255.255 192.168.50.1
route checkip.digitalocean.synology.com 255.255.255.255 192.168.50.1

Hey I just wanted to say thank you so much for the writeup on how to connect Synology DDNS while using a VPN. It worked for me perfectly.

Hello

found your tut, followed it to the dot and configured it like you said and it worked for a long time. Now every now and then Synology seems to have new ip-adresses for its ddns.synology.com which causes the issue that my Synology is not reacheable from outside anymore by DDNS-Url even if I turn off VPN completely... I have then to static route the new ip adresses and have to wait for all the DNS-Servers to pick it up again... Is this a common issue and what could i do about it since it gets pretty annoying?

I know that you are not Synology but maybe you know about the issue too since you cofigured it as well and have a tip for me...

Thanks again for the great Tutorial!
