106 — auth-outpost
Authentik forward-auth outpost for LAN-gated apps. A stateless proxy that connects outbound to the VPS Authentik core and serves forward-auth locally, so Caddy (121) never hairpins auth through VPS Traefik.
At a glance
- Hostname:
auth-outpost - IP:
192.168.8.6(static) - Privilege: privileged (Docker-in-LXC,
features: nesting=1) - Resources: 1 core / 512 MiB / 4 GiB rootfs
- Mounts: none
- Created: 2026-06-01, Debian 13, replacing the embedded outpost on 124
Role
Runs one container — ghcr.io/goauthentik/proxy — that opens an outbound websocket to https://auth.hubris.network (the VPS core), pulls its proxy-provider config, and answers Caddy's forward_auth subrequests on 192.168.8.6:9000 (LAN-only bind). Because the call path is Caddy → outpost (LAN), with no Traefik in between, X-Forwarded-Host is preserved — the failure that 404s when Caddy is pointed at https://auth.hubris.network directly (Traefik rewrites the header). See the migration investigation.

Caddy wiring
Caddy (121) (authentik) snippet reverse_proxy/forward_auth → http://192.168.8.6:9000 (was 192.168.8.180:9000 on LXC 124). Tracked in dtoro/caddy-conf.
sso.hubris.network — the callback domain (critical)
Domain-level (forward_domain) providers redirect the browser to {external_host}/outpost.goauthentik.io/callback after login. On LXC 124 that external_host was auth.hubris.network, which resolved (LAN) to Caddy → the 124 outpost — same box, so it worked. Post-migration auth.hubris.network points to the VPS core, so the callback hit the wrong outpost → 400 / redirect-uri mismatch.
Fix: the LAN outpost gets its own domain.
- DNS:
sso.hubris.network → 192.168.8.175(Caddy). (in dnsmasq today — must be carried into Technitium in DNS Phase 2.) - Caddy: site
sso.hubris.network { tls dns ionos; reverse_proxy 192.168.8.6:9000 }(incaddy-conf). - Authentik:
hubris-forward-authandProvider for Torrenthaveexternal_host=https://sso.hubris.network; theirredirect_urismust match (set_oauth_defaults()regenerates them fromexternal_host— changingexternal_hostalone does NOT update them). Provider for Artifactoisforward_singleon its own domain, so it was unaffected.
Lesson: when the IdP core and the forward-auth outpost live on different hosts, the outpost needs a dedicated domain distinct from the core's — and proxy-provider redirect_uris must be regenerated, not just external_host.

Changelog
2026-06-06 — Authentik session lifetime extended to 30 days
VPS Authentik core user_login stage updated: session_duration changed from seconds=0 (session cookie, cleared on browser close) to days=30 (persistent 30-day cookie). Also set AUTHENTIK_SESSIONS__UNAUTHENTICATED_AGE=days=30 in /opt/authentik.env on the VPS. See investigation.
2026-06-01 — created; forward-auth cut over from LXC 124
New dedicated LXC for the LAN forward-auth outpost (Phase 1 of the architecture migration). Deployed goauthentik/proxy:2026.5.2 pointed at the VPS core; repointed Caddy (authentik) from 192.168.8.180:9000 → 192.168.8.6:9000. Verified Paperless/qBittorrent/Artifacto return the SSO redirect with 124-Authentik stopped, confirming the frozen instance is out of the path. dnsmasq stays on 124 until DNS is relocated.
