Hi @fabio.parodi ! This sounds weird. Do you use any authentication plugin like LDAP or CAS plugin? And for the push/pull you are using the same credentials (so no API keys or other users)? Do you know whether anonymous access is activated in the global settings? ---

Thanks for answering René I am using the local users database, no plugin. Login does not work if I use the URL going through DNS [http://technoleaderscm.ddns.net:8080/scm/repos/](http://technoleaderscm.ddns.net:8080/scm/repos/) It works when I use the static IP address in my LAN: [http://192.168.185.6:8080/scm/repos/](http://192.168.185.6:8080/scm/repos/) I guess I can survive for the time being. Have a nice weekend Fabio ---

Ah, do you use a reverse proxy for this? If so, maybe you are missing `forwadHeadersEnabled` in your `config.yml`? > **[SCM-Server Configuration](https://scm-manager.org/docs/3.7.x/en/administration/scm-server/#reverse-proxy)** > > SCM-Manager v3 can be configured in several ways. We recommend using to have most of the settings in > one place. However, if required, each option in this… ---

Thanks for answering René forwadHeadersEnabled was = false I’ve tried setting forwadHeadersEnabled = true Then systemctl restart scm-server No way, same problem as before. `` I have a lot of things to do and do not have time to spend here; also it is not really my area of expertise à would like to get in contact with your colleagues for a commercial support offer, with the goal of improving the level of cybersecurity. Thanks and regards Fabio
