[Solved] Feature Request - HTTPS for remote access

No break in needed. Just give it the options, e.g. it needs to know your certificate information.

Duplicati.Server.exe (and should also work on Duplicati.GUI.TrayIcon.exe if that’s what’s run).

  • --webservice-sslcertificatefile
    The certificate and key file in PKCS #12 format the webserver use for SSL. Only RSA/DSA keys are supported.
  • --webservice-sslcertificatepassword
    The password for decryption of certificate PKCS #12 file.

Exactly how you add options depends on what you’re running. For example, if you Run a TrayIcon at Windows user login, then editing the shortcut (or maybe making one’s own to avoid Duplicati installer meddling with the custom version) works. For a Windows service, Duplicati.WindowsService.exe gets those additional options on its install run, although it’s likely easier to just edit the Windows service.

Running duplicati docker container with https is a How-To for Docker, but likely works without Docker.
There are topics in other forum categories that get into setup as well. I see some in Support category.
Forum search for sslcertificatefile has discussions to supplement the How-To. I don’t run https myself.

So maybe not needed, but I wanted to say it in this feature request to show it’s a built-in, not a bolt-on.
