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 know this is beyond the scope of your question but you are at a very similar place like i was over a year ago.

For the reverse proxy you want ingnx manager and it will handle all of your reverse proxies just fine.

But what i really want to recommend is to change up that debian into proxmox,

Proxmox is a debian based efficient server OS. Basically every service you run now can Easily be run as its own isolated container with very little overhang.

Best of all there is a community for Helper script that will install entire services including Nginx but even nextcloud from a single command.

Thx I appreciate the input. I have already a lot of things set up on the server and switching now would be painful and time consuming. I also use docker in conjunction with kvm-qemu and had I known about proxmox a month ago I would not have construct it at such but alas. I will however in the future get another hardware which I will use as a home server and I will definitely give proxmox a shot.

Unrealted but Alpine Linux is based af!
