* Unified NetBird combined server (Management, Signal, Relay, STUN) as a single executable with richer YAML configuration, validation, and defaults.
* Official Dockerfile/image for single-container deployment.
* Optional in-process profiling endpoint for diagnostics.
* Multiplexing to route HTTP/gRPC/WebSocket traffic via one port; runtime hooks to inject custom handlers.
* **Chores**
* Updated deployment scripts, compose files, and reverse-proxy templates to target the combined server; added example configs and getting-started updates.
Add LocalAuthDisabled option to embedded IdP configuration
This adds the ability to disable local (email/password) authentication when using the embedded Dex identity provider. When disabled, users can only authenticate via external
identity providers (Google, OIDC, etc.).
This simplifies user login when there is only one external IdP configured. The login page will redirect directly to the IdP login page.
Key changes:
Added LocalAuthDisabled field to EmbeddedIdPConfig
Added methods to check and toggle local auth: IsLocalAuthEnabled, HasNonLocalConnectors, DisableLocalAuth, EnableLocalAuth
Validation prevents disabling local auth if no external connectors are configured
Existing local users are preserved when disabled and can login again when re-enabled
Operations are idempotent (disabling already disabled is a no-op)
Embed Dex as a built-in IdP to simplify self-hosting setup.
Adds an embedded OIDC Identity Provider (Dex) with local user management and optional external IdP connectors (Google/GitHub/OIDC/SAML), plus device-auth flow for CLI login. Introduces instance onboarding/setup endpoints (including owner creation), field-level encryption for sensitive user data, a streamlined self-hosting provisioning script, and expanded APIs + test coverage for IdP management.
