By default hbbs and hbbr bind every port to the wildcard, which collides with operators wanting to put nginx/Caddy in front of the dashboard (443) and the two browser-facing WebSocket ports (21118 rendezvous, 21119 relay) for TLS termination. Operators reported having to choose between exposing hbbs directly (no TLS for `wss://`, breaks browsers since the page is HTTPS) or moving the daemon to a different port. New flags: - hbbs `--http-listen=<HOST>` pins the HTTP API + dashboard port. - hbbs `--ws-listen=<HOST>` pins the WS rendezvous port (port + 2). - hbbr `--ws-listen=<HOST>` pins the WS relay port (port + 2). All default to the wildcard (current behaviour). Set to `127.0.0.1` to free up the corresponding public port for nginx. The plain TCP/UDP ports used by desktop clients (21115 NAT test, 21116 rendezvous, 21117 relay) intentionally stay on the wildcard — desktop clients bring their own framing + secretbox encryption and don't go through nginx. Implementation: a small `bind_tcp_listener(host, port)` helper in common.rs that falls through to the existing `listen_any` when host is empty, otherwise binds explicitly. Reused for both ws_port (rendezvous + relay) and the http_port; the latter just builds a `SocketAddr` inline since axum::serve takes one. Documentation: new "TLS deployment with nginx" section in docs/CONFIGURATION.md covering the port plan, the bind flags, full example nginx vhost config (three server blocks: 443 dashboard, 21118 WSS rendezvous, 21119 WSS relay) with the WebSocket Upgrade plumbing and bump-up timeouts that long sessions need, plus the firewall list and the four common failure modes (SSL protocol error, connection refused, 502, hung 200 instead of 101).

RustDesk Server Program
Self-host your own RustDesk server, it is free and open source.
How to build manually
cargo build --release
Three executables will be generated in target/release.
- hbbs - RustDesk ID/Rendezvous server
- hbbr - RustDesk relay server
- rustdesk-utils - RustDesk CLI utilities
You can find updated binaries on the Releases page.
If you want extra features, RustDesk Server Pro might suit you better.
If you want to develop your own server, rustdesk-server-demo might be a better and simpler start for you than this repo.
