UNRAID proxy with working (streamed) docker logs

[cmitz]

Unraid (https://unraid.net/) is a wonderful linux-based NAS operating system, and it has a web interface for managing your server. I wanted to be able to access the webinterface on unraid.mydomain.tld. Here are some notes to make it work properly:

• I updated the settings in Unraid so the UI is available on port 8080
• I created an access list within NPM to prevent accessing Unraid UI from the public internet
• I added unraid.mydomain.tld as a proxy host to NPM
• I added a custom location / with the rule proxy_buffering: off; to enable logs for e.g. adding/updating docker containers

Security note: you really do not want to expose the UI to the public internet. There are not enough security measures within the OS to prevent attackers from getting in.
