hey guys, I managed to use LLDAP with authelia but now I needed to learn how to use it for auth with jellyfin because I can't seem to connect to my server on my tv while using authelia, is there a guide I can follow so I can try to avoid making stupid questions here?

To my knowledge Jellyfin doesn’t yet support oidc. Personally I auth Jellyfin against lldap directly.
d
yes, thats what I want to learn how to!
n
Usability question: we have a guide for jellyfin, is it hard to find?
d
I found the example config but didnt manage to make it work
n
Ah, okay
n
(I'm glad you found the config!)
d
tbh, wasnt easy to find lol
n
Really? What would make it easier to find?
d
uhhhh
let me find an example
n
We recently reworked the readme to make it shorter, including links to a separate "integration guide" page
Any suggestions on improving it is welcome
d
I saw a simple and good one somewhere, just need to remember where haha
m
Looking at that example config it might help to make it more clear which pieces are “example values” that should be replaced
d
been doing so many self hosting stuff I need some time
n
Maybe the config can use some work, but I'm surprised it was hard to find
m
To be fair unless I save the github repo as a bookmark, googling “lldap” or “github lldap” tends to take me to OpenLdap as the results (but that’s not specific to the Jellyfin config itself)
d
couldnt find it but, having a README that directs to each config file might help? And a link to that readme from the main github page
https://github.com/glanceapp/glance/blob/main/docs/configuration.md this one puts everything in the same .md , not sure if you guys would want that though
d
is that linked in the main page? am I blind? haha
n
Which I realize is not linked from the main page, we link to the folder
In the "known compatible services" section
d
ah good, sometimes I miss obvious stuff
n
Could I trouble you to create an issue to remind me to fix that? I might forget
And now back to your problem, can you tell me what's wrong?
tbh, I wanted the guide cause I have no idea what to write on LDAP Server:
okay, gonna try
n
How do you run LLDAP? Docker? With a docker compose? In that case the address of the service is the name of the container (e.g. lldap, so http://lldap)
d
I run it in a docker compose file with authelia but its separate from my jellyfin compose
done creating the issue
n
I think you want all the containers in the same compose file
d
hmmm Ive been keeping them separate and worked alright so far? I did add the 3890 port in my LLDAP compose, should be able to access it from localhost:3890 right?
btw, do I need to do any other config on LLDAP to use it with jellyfin? So far I only used it with authelia for user management
x
only ip, and uncheck the SSL
n
I think the IP may not be stable on restarts
And if you put them in the same compose (and same network or the default one) you don't have to expose the port to the internet
all my stuff is behind a reverse proxy, so it isnt exposed to the internet right?
still learning this stuff
n
If you expose the port, then it's reachable at your IP
d
but the roueter only has http and https forwarded, wouldnt it block other ports?
n
If it's blocked at the router level, then yes
But it's also possible to make it so only other docker services see the port
d
I do understand I need to create a docker network at some point haha but first I will get things working
n
I've just never heard of anyone using multiple compose files, that's it 🙂
d
very helpful to update and take them down separately!
n
You can still bring services up and down
m
That’s why you use the docker networks so the reverse proxy sees all services but no service is exposed on the host ip
n
And having all in one file, it will know about the dependencies
d
yep, I plan on making a network ||some day||
