    Well I've started reading the articles everyone shared. So far I like the idea of having my router handel it all. PFSense with ACME and hyproxy. Might have spelt it wrong but so far that is looking great not sure how I will move the existing certs over but going to have to learn more about how the certs work.

    Thank you to everyone!

    Cool. :) Neat solution for you. Won't work for me, because my system is a VM running Docket containers. Some of the containers will generate HTML and PHP files that the web server will serve, while others run their own web server that will be behind a reverse proxy. My ideal case is to run nginx on the host to be both the web server and reverse proxy, along with Certbot for LetsEncrypt certificates. But I may have to settle for Apache instead (because I know it a lot better).

    After reviewing this a bit and watching that lawerence video I don't see how it wouldn't work for you? Can you elaborate as this sound much like the current setup I have?

    Hmm, you took your current setup out for me to compare again. :( And video reference isn't helpful either for me, I tend not to watch instructional videos, as they are largely a waste of time for me. :(

    From memory, you're using port forwarding in places. While Docker does have its form of port forwarding, I'd have to do another comparison to find what I saw last time.

    Haha it's subtle missing bits of information. I'm very sensitive to that. :( Part of my workaround for different communication styles is I try and assume a lot less, but when the other person makes unspecified assumptions, that's kinda hard.
