Custom global discovery server returning 403 Forbidden?

Hi, I’m trying to run a global discovery server for my devices at home using Docker and Traefik. I set it up on my server and PC in a configuration like the below:

PC ==(https)==> Traefik (on server) ==(http)==> Syncthing-Discosvr

Syncthingthing-Discosvr is using -http so that Traefik handles certs. On the PC though, I always seem to get 403 Forbidden as the error reported in the Syncthing GUI on the PC. It seems to be returned from Syncthing-Discosvr itself after looking at Traefik’s logs and trying curl -X POST https://st-ds.xxx.dev myself (which is what Syncthing itself seems to be doing).

Here’s all the configs/logs of interest.

I’m also investigating some discovery server issues. Try also sending a client certificate in the curl command.

$ curl -X POST <url> --key <key> --cert <cert>

For my testing, I used the ones generated by syncthing. In my case found in: ~/.config/syncthing/{key,cert}.pem.

Do the ‘no certificates’ erros go away?

Does your proxy send the X-SSL-Cert to the backend (Syncthing Discovery Server — Syncthing v1 documentation)? You could analyze the proxy->backend HTTP Post with wireshark and inspect the headers.

Disclaimer: I’m new to syncthing, and I don’t know what Traefik does :⁣)

As in the other thread; the server needs to request the certificate. In Nginx the incantation is ssl_verify_client optional_no_ca;. I don’t know it in Traefik.

Ah I see, I missed the steps regarding the headers.

It looks like Traefik has this data but in differently named headers and doesn’t support renaming headers. Though there’s also an experimental plugin for this I will have to try.

Ill report back if I get it to work

Took me quite a while, but I was able to get Traefik to pass everything. I am still receiving no certificates though :confused:

After running:

X-Forwarded-For, X-Client-Port, and X-Ssl-Cert are set and look correct.

Any ideas? Maybe Traefik encodes the certificate different than expected, PassTLSClientCert - Traefik ?

You’re confusing the discovery server because X-SSL-Cert is the Nginx header but the contents are not in the format Nginx uses. However you’re in luck because the discovery server also understands Traefik’s X-Forwarded-TLS-Client-Cert. So remove the X-SSL-Cert header, I guess.

Please file an update to Syncthing Discovery Server — Syncthing v1 documentation with a working config when you’ve sorted this out, to pay it forward. :slight_smile:

Ooohh, nice! I removed the X-Ssl-Cert header and was able to get past at least no certificates

syncthing-discosrv    | 60d469ad5e42a3e1 POST /
syncthing-discosrv    | 60d469ad5e42a3e1 decode: EOF

Oh I spoke too soon, it seems like that’s because I wasn’t sending any JSON in my curl

After hooking up a real Syncthing client to the global discovery server it works!
