Hey guys, it’s me, Bizzle. I’m a tech hobbyist, but I think I’m a little out of my element here and I’m hoping you can help.

I have a ProxMox server at home, part of it is running Lemmy. I want to make the rest of it run NextCloud. I have a domain name, but I only have one IP address. Therefore, lemmy.moorefam.net points to my house and I forward the port from the VM running Lemmy.

What I want is for nextcloud.moorefam.net to point to a different VM, on my home network. But I don’t know how to set that up.

Thanks in advance, Bizzle

      I would advise against running millions of domains on a single IP, you will run into issues with a lack of ports that are not in use for the reverse proxy/backend connections unless you are dealing with websites that are basically never used.

        I mean… if you’re running millions of sites on one box, and that itself isn’t an issue, I’d assume your port saturation/traffic is pretty low.

        Sure… this was just said to simplify what is technically possible. Should you? No maybe not, for multiple reasons. Can you, technically? Yes absolutely. I don’t know what’s the limit but I know that if you have to ask here on lemmy, you might not be anywhere near that limit. Unless you are the go daddy.
