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'm doing the same with Apache in a container. Using Let's Encrypt with DNS challenge for SSL certificate. The DNS records point to the reverse proxy IP which is only accessible via VPN (Tailscale). 😂

nginx + certbot \ acme for certs from my local Step-CA, proper DNS & I just use a WireGuard VPN on-demand for when I leave my house. As soon as I'm off my Wi-Fi I have the VPN active so I don't need to expose anything more than 1 port for that to work =]

I might look at Tailscale, if only because I've seen plenty of people say that's how they connect, so worth looking into =]

If you want to stay fully self-hosted, look into Headscale. You could run it locally with a port open, or you could throw it on the tiniest cloud VM somewhere and have zero ports open at home.

Thanks! I'll take a look at that.
