New Post: Authentik on Docker: Self-Hosted Single Sign-On for Your Homelab

Hey,

New post on ignaonline.com — this one's for everyone who's tired of managing a different username and password for every homelab service.

Authentik on Docker: Self-Hosted Single Sign-On for Your Homelab

If you're running Nextcloud, Grafana, Portainer, or any other self-hosted app, Authentik gives you a single identity provider that handles authentication across all of them. OAuth2/OIDC, LDAP, proxy auth for apps that don't support SSO natively — it covers everything.

This guide walks through the full Docker Compose setup, connects Nextcloud via OIDC, shows how to use the proxy outpost for apps without native OAuth2 support, and covers MFA enforcement and backup procedures.
