Hey all,

So I've been playing with Nginx so that I can reference my self hosted services internally by hostname rather than by IP and port.

I set some custom entries in my pihole, setup the proxies on Nxing, and boom. All is working as expected. I can access Jellyfin via jellyfin.homelab, amp via amp.homelab, etc.

I wanted to have all of these internally facing, because I don't really have a need for them outside of my network, and really just wanted the convenience of referencing them.

Question 1) If I wanted to add SSL certs to my made up homelab domain, how hard would that be?

Question 2) When accessing something like Jellyfin via jellyfin.homelab, all traffic is then going through my nginx VM, correct? Or is Nginx just acting as a sort of lookup which passes on the correct IP and port information?
