AW: AW: Using NGINX as reverse proxy to webmin on a remote server

[Carsten Laun-De Lellis]

Hi Anthony

Thank you for your quick reply.

I've tried to configure my servers according to the link you sent, but it didn't work out.

The config on the Nginx server looks like:
server {
        server_name vml000036.delellis.net;
        listen 192.168.178.36:80;

        location /vml000032 {
                proxy_pass      http://192.168.1.32:10000;
                proxy_set_header        Host         $host;
        }
}

The webmin config on the upstream server looks like:
path=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin
passwd_cindex=2
ld_env=LD_LIBRARY_PATH
tempdelete_days=7
by_view=0
find_pid_command=ps auwwwx | grep NAME | grep -v grep | awk '{ print $2 }'
passwd_pindex=1
passwd_file=/etc/shadow
passwd_mindex=4
passwd_uindex=0
os_type=debian-linux
os_version=9.0
real_os_type=Ubuntu Linux
real_os_version=18.04.4
lang=en.UTF-8
log=1
referers_none=1
md5pass=1
theme=authentic-theme
product=webmin
webprefix=/vml000032
webprefixnoredir=1
referer=vml000036.delellis.net

I have tried also as referer the IP Address of the Nginx server, but didn't work either.

When I open the page in my webbrowser I get the logon screen to the webmin sever on my Nginx hostsystem. Not on vml000032.

But even when I try to login the page refreshes and nothing else happens.

Mit freundlichem Gruß / Best regards
