Hi, I will be self hosting my website soon and I need to my domain to point to port 8080 on my deddicated server.
My question is, what srv service tags do I need to use to make it connect?
My setup;
A: example.net ipaddress autottl
SVR: _http._tcp.example.net 0 0 auto example.net
It doesn’t seem to want to work, is this the right configuration?
Edit: see this Cloudflare app, portzilla.
Browsers are hard-coded to use port 80 for http:// connections and port 443 for https:// connections. They also don’t check SRV records, they only query for A/AAAA.
In order to get port 8080 to work for your domain, you will either need to go directly to example.com:8080 or use a proxy like Workers to proxy to another port number.
