I've been setting up a music server on my home server recently, looking to move away from private hosting options like iBroadcast, but I've hit a bit of a snag when it comes to actually accessing my server when away from home.

The two most common recommendations I've seen are Cloudflare and OpenVPN. My router supports OVPN access, so I gave that a try, but couldn't ever actually make it work. I don't know for sure, but I think it's probably something with my ISP that I can't really easily work around. As far as Cloudflare goes, setting up a tunnel requires you to have a domain set up with them even if you're just using Warp, and since I don't have one, that's not an option.

What other good options are there for remote access? I'm running Open Media Vault as my server. Thanks.

Edit: Based on responses, it looks like Tailscale is the way to go since it's all private to me. Thanks everyone!

No, I use a second reverse proxy for my local network. For example, I can resolve navidrome either via my VPS using navidrome.mydomain.net or directly in my local network with the address navidrome.local.mydomain.net. I also configured the local caddy reverse proxy with a DNS provider module to get LetsEncrypt certificates for my local addresses.
