How to reverse proxy? (lemm.ee)

Hi everybody.

How should I setup reverse proxy for my services? I've got things like jellyfin, immich a bitwarden running on my Debian server in docker. So should i install something like nginx for each of these also in docker? Or should I install it from repository and make configs for each of these docker services?

Btw I have no idea how to use something like nginx or caddy but i would still like to learn.

Also can you use nginx for multiple services on the same port like(443)?

i have nginx proxy manager set up all as well, but haven’t worked out the SSL part yet, so all my internal docker services are still on http

out of interest, how did you set up https with npm?

First set up your certificate in the SSL tab of NPM. You can either upload a traditional certificate or set up LetsEncrypt. Be aware that starting next spring the maximum length of a certificate will drop to 9 months and continue to decrease over the next few years until its 47 days.

I have mine set up so LetsEncrypt gets a wildcard cert for my domain (via DNS challenge). Some people go with per subdomain certs.

Once you have the cert, go you each of your hosts and switch to its SSL tab. Then select your cert. Then I usually turn on "Force SSL"

does a wild card cert essentially mean i have use one cert which will cover all my subdomains as well as the primary domain?
