If this isn’t the right place to put it please let me know. I am in the process of re-imaging pc running Ubuntu server to help clean up services. Before I had Openvpn Access server running on the server as well as docker running Nextcloud, Jellyfin, and NGINX Proxy Manager.

Computer Specs :

- Intel® Core™ i5-6500T CPU @ 2.50GHz
- 64gb DDr4 - 2133 MHz

I would like to run these services and currently am having difficulty with just docker.

  • DNS Server
  • Nextcloud
  • Jellyfin Server
  • Future Projects

Questions

  1. Would it be possible to use a DNS server and reverse proxy together?
    1. Can I have Internal and external DNS?
  2. Should I switch to running a bare-metal hypervisor?
  3. What should I use for a DNS Server?
  • I have been recommended using pfsence or pi-hole.

Thank you in advance for any recommendations, advice, and/or answers.

    Would it be possible to use a DNS server and reverse proxy together?

    Sure, reverse proxy is a web server whos job is to be in charge of ports 80 and 443 and decide to what other webservers send traffic based on request url

    Can I have Internal and external DNS?

    Probably, who knows what you really means. Split dns maybe?

    Should I switch to running a bare-metal hypervisor?

    If you need it. Seems your needs are met with just docker.

    What should I use for a DNS Server?

    dnsmasq works and I used it for a time, then I moved to having opnsense as my firewall and use its unbound service.
