Super Simple Cloudflare and Nginx Proxy Manager Setup Using YOUR Domain

Don’t forget to forward ports 80 and 443 to the IP of the machine your Nginx Proxy Manager is on. Do this in your router or gateway. Find the IP by opening a terminal and type “ifconfig”. If that doesn’t work install net tools by typing “sudo apt install net-tools” then run the ifconfig command again. You can also use the ip addr command.

Well Done Sir!

I'm attempting to get my 40yr old brain back into IT, but Uhh... Win2k Server Pro isn't exactly the standard anymore lol

so I'm running nginx on a home assistant VM in proxmox, but when I go to the subdomains I create it just takes me to the login page of nginx, any suggestions?

Would be possible to give your hdd a new identity (virtualise it) and use it from outside (proxmox/docker)?

is it possible to do this senario using linode vps brother !?

Problem i found with cloudflare after following all the steps and it all worked perfectly but cloudflare has kind of a limit 100mb so if u login to the synology nas on synology photos it'll login but if you try to upload a videos thats bigger than 100mb u'll get an error and it wont upload I've followed same steps using wix domain i have and mobile upload worked again

Thank you for the video. I would suggest eliminating the annoying background music. It adds nothing to your content. It doesn’t increase comprehension. It trivializes your presentation. I watched to learn something useful, not to be entertained.

hello, i tried, follow all the step but it does'nt work. Always a 522 error. Don't understand why.

Thank you for your kind explaination! I got it finally!

it's also a good advice to run a fail2ban docker container which allows cloudflare to block rouge like IP's for enhanced protection of your services

Your volume is very low.

For those who cannot port-forward for whatever reason (such as being behind CG-NAT). One solution i have found is to use Tailscale Funnel. its in beta right now and i had to join a waiting list to get it although that currently seems to no longer be the case, but this would allow you to self-host in situations where port forwarding is impossible. There are probably other better solutions to this that funnel, but its the only thing i have experience with.

a free DNS provider?

after adding the domain to cloudflare in this way and redirecting the service via ngiex proxy manager, I keep getting error Origin is unreachable Error code 523
I will add that the domain is correctly redirected to cloudflare servers thunk you help:)

Everything was going great except I get an "Internal Error" in NGINX when trying to save with a Let's Encrypt certificate. Any ideas?

No matter how many times I do this, as soon as I turn on Proxy it stops working?

Great video! I ran into the same problem with the Cloudflare proxy needing to be disabled for the certs to get provisioned. One question though, does the enabling of proxy in Cloudflare DNS prevent the certs from being renewed? Any feedback will be appreciated :)

argh, why do I keep getting 'internal error' when requesting a certificate?

❤️❤️❤️ respect Sir it was awesome and full of knowledge...

This stuff hurts my brain so much. So, does cloudflare work hand in hand with the ssl cert you get from letsencrypt? I assume there are now 2 certs? one for cloudfare and one for nginx?

So I cant use a proxied cloudflare record?
