Eclipse MQTT 2.x in Docker + user credentials on Synology
Setup of Eclipse Mosquitto (MQTT) on Synology is very easy but in order to get credentials for users working, we need a bit different approach by using OpenSSL version of Eclipse MQTT.
In this video I'll go through basic installation of MQTT in Docker (works for Synology but also other systems) and I'll show you have to add user credentials to secure your setup.
