A - Z : NGINX Reverse Proxy to Apache with SSL (using Cloudflare DNS)

It's a long video but it covers all the bases. Your ISP modem, your router, Cloudflare DNS, Certbot, Apache settings, and NGINX settings. I show you how it all comes together.

In this video I want to go down the required rabbit holes and remove the mystery entirely. I try to break it down as simply as is possible. Hope this video helps you avoid the days or weeks of searching that it took for me.

Some helpful snippets :

server {
listen 80;
# include sm-snippets/proxy_pass;
}

server {
listen 443 ssl http2;
listen [::]:443 ssl http2;
include sm-snippets/proxy_pass;
}

So much wonderful information!! Thank you for taking the time to put this together. In my case, I have a jitsi install that is up and running with all defaults outside of some branding changes... I am looking to add a nextcloud server to the mix. I have been working for about a day to get my head wrapped around how to accomplish this. In my case, I have three different physical servers, server1 as the reverse proxy, server2 as jitsi and server3 as nextcloud. So far, everything I have tried has some sort of gotcha that is holding me up, but, I hope to take the concepts here and adjust for the separate servers to get something to work. Kudos!

Are you positive that you aren't supposed to use ssl on the apache side? Swear I read somewhere and used to have it set up with it and am re configuring and cant for the life of me remember how i did it.
