I followed this tutorial to set up local domain names with SSL-certificates using DuckDNS: https://notthebe.ee/blog/easy-ssl-in-homelab-dns01/

I have three local domains for my Nginx Proxy Manager running on a VPS, for my self-hosted Nextcloud and my Proxmox-WebGUI both running on my local Homeserver. They follow the scheme service.dataprolet.duckdns.org.

Now I use Uptime-Kuma to monitor my services including the three domains and for some reason those three domains constantly time out after 48 seconds. I already set up the retries to 3, but to no avail.

I also use Pi-hole and Unbound and thought, that might be an issue, but testing my DNS using dig, mtr, traceroute, nslookup and host all returned normal values and no errors.

Does anybody have any idea what could cause this? I'm kind of clueless at this point. Thanks in advance!

Yeah, it works fine through my browser. Sometimes the websites load a little longer. I feel like it's an issue with DuckDNS as it's seemingly random when it works and when not.

IPv6 doesn't work:

docker exec -it Uptime-Kuma curl -6 proxmox.datenprolet.duckdns.org
curl: (6) Could not resolve host: proxmox.datenprolet.duckdns.org

Besides that the issue has disappeares since last night. I automatically restart all containers at night and moved from uptime-kuma:1 to uptime-kuma:latest. That shouldn't make a difference, but maybe it did?

And it's not a typo in my config, but in my post. But good catch. ;)

Could not resolve host

Then I guess you only define an A record in the DuckDNS panel. That's fine.

A while back I ran a somewhat similar Wireguard tunnel and can't connect. Turns out some MTU settings were lower than the docker's MTU and that breaks big packets like SSL handshakes. Restarting makes it work fine until things start congesting again.

Suffice to say this would be something I'll look at if the SSL errors reoccurs
