Introduction

Many 3D printing enthusiasts turn to the open source software Octoprint to run their 3D printer so they do not have to dedicate an entire computer to run thier printer. Octoprint convieniently comes with its own Raspberry Pi ready image called Octopi. Of course once Octopi is set up the typical next thought is that you would like to be able to access your Octopi from wherever you are over the internet. The Octoprint FAQ section warns that it does not have sufficient security to be pointed internet facing by itself. Octoprint instead recommends that you use HAProxy as a reverse proxy to provide authentication and security for Octoprint. In this tutorial I will show you how to configure HAProxy to be a bit more secure than most tutorials you will find on the web.
