Comment on Having trouble setting up Nginx

Are you wanting to access your sites remotely or only via the local LAN?

If you’re aiming for remote access then you can’t use the 192.168.* range as that’s the up address behind your NAT/router. You have use your public IP and do port forwarding from your router.

Yeah, just looking for internal access right now so I don’t have to remember the correct port for every service. Will use a VPN (leaning toward Tailscale) for remote access once I get this set up.

  Are you able to query to see what IP address that domain returns? Does it return the 192.168.x address that you set?

    Thanks for that flow on how to troubleshoot.
    
    When I try nslookup on the server, it doesn’t seem to be working at all (nslookup google.com returns ** server can’t find nslookup: NXDOMAIN). On Windows, it doesn’t return any IP (*** No internal type for both IPv4 and IPv6 Addresses records available). Looking at my Pi-hole query log, I do see that address was queried and allowed.
    
    How can I check what Cloudflare is seeing (because as I understand that’s the next link in the chain)? I’m not seeing any logs there, but only created my account Saturday…

    You could try just using the ping or host commands, they will also try to resolve the domain.
    
    Also can you access the services by using IP:Port?
