Configure NGINX as a Reverse Proxy

[@yahya1badawi1]

simple and direct to the point tutorial :))

[@jairunet]

Seriously? I got more confused now and will need to basically look for a better explanation, I appreciate the work of the engineer here, however, there is a saying, when you understand something really well you can explain it to a 5-year-old and it will be understood.

[@infertilepiggy5667]

[@stevecassidy]

Really useful video - thanks very much. could you do another showing how you can proxy based on the domain/subdomain name please?

[@direttodiretto3120]

Fantastic video it helped me to understand how to configure, in a right way, this technology. Thank you.

[@DentargPL]

ctrl+L is faster than clear ;), thx for the tutorial

[@lyingcat9022]

Or alias "c" to "clear" in your terminal rc file. :)

Can this be setup on Qnap for plex and emby apps ?

[@Aaron-n2x2v]

default nginx behaviour is bloody naughty in my experience lol

[@justinnoor4915]

Can the reverse proxy and load balancer be on the same instance of Nginx, or should they be on separate instances?

[@jay15183]

Absolutely. That's the idea. However, for enterprise architectures, I'd defer to the security teams for guidance.

[@RoamFree1866]

Nicely explained; I wish I had come across this before wasting a lot of time through trial and error on Apache. Thank you!

[@fabr3331]

After configuring NGINX to an IIS web server, is there any additional setup needed at Windows Server?

[@pttech4412]

is there a simple line we can add to the config where we set up the custom_log to include datetime? I am struggling to find something suitable on google

[@rehmanarshad1848]

If you're on Linux you can use logrotate It's a built in utility for managing log files. Create a custom logroate job for nginx $ vi /etc/logrotate.d/nginx /var/log/nginx/*.log { create 600 nginx nginx daily delay-compress date %mm-dd-yyy rotate 4 post_rotate >2 /dev/null } The file would look something like that. You can look the documentation or Linux manual pages for logrotate. Good luck on your endeavors!

[@Sophia_lovy]

/etc/nginx/conf.d is empty.

*Very nice video and explanation, thanks a lot and greetings from Argentina.*

Hi sir, Good custom logs format. TY.

[@matthiasebert9612]

I have a ca provideing certificates for all my servers. How can I configure nginx to use the ca.crt file to check if it is one of my own servers requesting and just let this requests through?

[@74giannico]

thanks for the video. I wanted to ask if there is a configuration that works with exchange. I have tried various configurations but I have had problems especially with the OUTLOOK and mobile clients

[@dsulvadarius]

Is it beneficial to configure nginx as a web server and a reverse proxy on the same VM?

[@mabrukc]

Good technical level on the presentation and informative

[@discordxd4337]

I believe you can but tNice tutorials will depend what version you have.

[@mariobader2152]

What can you do to display static elements that have a relative path? Doesn't seem to work

Is it possible to use nginx reverse proxy as tcp?

[@chrisowuor605]

how about if I have two apps running in my instance say in port 4000 and 9000 then I want to serve the two apps using the same IP but different paths in the request

[@imran06614]

I am using Nginx as a revere proxy and I have a requirement to Intercept the application server response ( encrypt it by calling another service before returning it to the client ) could you please suggest a solution.

[@Alirezavafaee]

Thanks for the video

[@brotherly9058]

In my directory, I can't find default.conf, what can I do? I NEED SOME HELPS.

[@nginx_official]

default.conf is located in /conf.d/default.conf when you install NGINX OSS or Plus. Here’s a link to installing NGINX OSS - docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/installing-nginx/installing-nginx-open-source/

[@fabricenikine1423]

Hello, i have this error on the firefox page : 502 gateway I have an nginx proxy reverse with an iis. How to resolve this error ? Thanks.

[@uuu12343]

Hi! Correct me if im wrong, I am using Pihole, a DNS Resolver Server + Sinkhole + Firewall. To map a custom URL (I.e. domain:port/subdomain) to a custom Domain Name, I'll need to use reverse proxy, am i right?

[@toasterbath1395]

Yes this is the whole point of a reverse proxy to map a subdomain to the same public ip but different port/ internal ip

[@samansaeedi102]

please tell us how you installed nginx on vm? thanks

[@tkk554]

any way to do Reverse Proxy for tcp stream?

[@nginx_official]

Absolutely - You can proxy TCP connections using proxy_pass directive. It is performed via the Stream Module. Links below give you more details. docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/load-balancer/tcp-udp-load-balancer/ docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/security-controls/securing-tcp-traffic-upstream/

[@deepaksingh-qd7xm]

[@hackerarmy7037]

Is Nginx free version support tcp and udp reverse proxy?

[@nginx_official]

Yes - NGINX OSS (free version) supports both TCP and UDP proxying/load-balancing. Both TCP/UDP proxying/load-balancing is performed by the Stream Module. More details on the links below: docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/load-balancer/tcp-udp-load-balancer/

[@Jamie-kf2vf]

Well this is awesome. My knowledge on networks, reverse proxies etc is utterly woeful but this helps me understand the fundamentals of Nginx. Thank you!

[@andyfifedenim]

Where is the git hub?

[@nginx_official]

Here's the repo: github.com/jay-nginx/reverse-proxy.
