Nginx questions

Use nmap to scan ports to see what is open/closed/blocked.

Its working. My DNS updated and externally, its going to https. I am not sure why telnet was not working.

I've still got a few loose ends though. I want to set my cert to auto renew, but I dont know quite what to do on this step:

@JaredBusch said in Install Nginx as a Reverse Proxy on Fedora 27:

Don't forget to automate the cert renew
Create a cron job to run the renew everyday. Certbot will not actually do anything if it does not see any certs needing renew within 30 days. So you can run this as often as you want. Cerbot themselves recommends running it twice a day with this.
Use crontab -e to edit your crontab.
0 0,12 * * * python -c 'import random; import time; time.sleep(random.random() * 3600)' && certbot renew 

If I try and run crontab -e, it says:

[root@nginx ~]# crontab -e
-bash: crontab: command not found

I am also getting the following error on NC on my iPhone

nope

Donahue

could this be a DNS propagation issue? like wait and see?

No, because you are clearly seeing the right resolution of the hostname.

Ok, I think I got the cron job thing all figured out. I had to install cronie. One question though, I just pasted that into my cron file, and then saved. Is that all I need to do?

looks like the NC thing might be a bug with just iOS and using a reverse proxy

yep, the "old method" indeed did work.
