I have my pangolin server set up and working, providing forward auth and roll based access before reverse proxying my self hosted resources.
However when I have the pangolin zero-trust client connected, I want to skip the forward auth since I’m already authed via the client. I want to do this since some apps like Jellyfin don’t play nice with the forward auth.
I can’t find a way to achieve this - there is no rule for connected clients. When I set up as a private resource, then I don’t get the reverse-proxy functionality, so when the client is connected my urls change (need to add ports), which isn’t really acceptable.
I can set up another reverse proxy behind pangolin, but pangolin already provides reverse proxying so that seems silly.
What am I missing? How can I achieve the goal of skipping forward auth when the pangolin client is connected?


This! I couldn’t put it in words but this sums it up perfectly. I am using the Webinterface for jellyfin when on the road and I really would love to use the regular client.
Idk why people are downvoting you.
Nobody ever knows. There’s never an explanation if the commenter gave inaccurate information, which would be super helpful. It’s just ‘here, have some down votes.’
