I installed Airbyte on a VPS using this tutorial - https://docs.airbyte.com/deploying-airbyte/on-digitalocean-droplet Anyone have a tutorial to enable secured access username/password to the insatnce deployed in this way?

I am not using GCP, and prefer NOT to do this through GCP or AWS.

You can try follow the reverse-proxy tutorial in comments though

thanks ill give it a go.

I personally always recommend Cloudflare Access — pretty easy to get set up & it’s free https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/applications/configure-apps/self-hosted-apps/
