I thought that Vaultwarden install was going to be a little simpler but after having consulted a few guides here and there its maybe less straightforward than I thought.

My use-case is to use it on may internal LAN only with not access from outside whatsoever. In theory, http should be fine, but as this tool will contain quite a bit of sensitive data, I can see why it may be a good idea to go https. Are most of you internal users only setting up https?

My network is behind a pfSense setup that uses unbound to resolve all DNS. Locally, all my DNS requests are being forwarded on the subnet I will have Vaultwarden installed.

  • First question is whether for internal network use only, I need to go https.
  • Second question is whether I need to follow this guide?
