hey guys

I'm pretty new to this web-stuff

i got a vps where i'd like to install nextcloud. i want it to be reachable via cloud.example.com

i also have a homeserver with octoprint and stuff on it. i'd love to be able to access that with octoprint.example.com

that's what you pros use a reverse proxy for, right? but how do i do that?

install nextcloud with appache and use nginx as the proxy? i guess i could also use haproxy for that as well? what would you recomend as setup?

sadly nginx proxy manager is no option. but is there another easy to config method?

Nginx is pretty easy to set up. Look up "nginx virtual hosts". You might want to use certbot/acme if you don't have SSL certificates for your domain names. You need either a wildcard certificate (*.example.com), a certificate with SAN (Subject Alternative Name) containing the second subdomain, or two certificates (one for each subdomain). Note that subdomains can be found more easily than path based websites, if you allow connections from the whole WAN.
