Comment on Help with Getting My Reverse Proxy to Forward the Correct IP Address
treadful@lemmy.zip 5 hours agoI really don’t know shit about the GUI tools, but presumably they overlay on the same configuration.
The config I posted would be part of the nginx configuration. You’re instructing it to append the client IP to the X-Forwarded-For header.
There is a “Custom Nginx Configuration” screen for my Proxy Host; does it go there? In a nested location block?
I doubt it, but I’m not sure. The location block would normally be where your reverse proxy configuration would already be, and you’d need to just add that one line. But again, I don’t know how that translates to these GUI tools. Maybe if you search for proxy_add_x_forwarded_for and “Nginx Proxy Manager” you might find what you need.

I know you said you don’t know anything about the GUI equivalent, so I’m mostly responding to this comment to publicly post how far I’ve gotten off of your tips. There is a “Custom Locations” tab for my proxy host in NPM, but even after attempting to follow this guide I found, I can’t get my custom locations to persist after hitting the Save button.
