This document describes DNS configuration requirements for the reverse proxy system.
DNS Configuration
[edit]For the system to work, each subdomain must have a DNS A record pointing to the VPS:
[subdomain].jb-vpn.uk → 87.106.61.62
Examples
[edit]wiki.jb-vpn.uk→87.106.61.62
werbs-wiki.jb-vpn.uk→87.106.61.62
dsm.jb-vpn.uk→87.106.61.62
plex.jb-vpn.uk→87.106.61.62
DNS Propagation
[edit]DNS changes can take up to 48 hours to propagate, though typically much faster.
Verify DNS Configuration
[edit]==== Check DNS resolution ==== nslookup wiki.jb-vpn.uk == Or using dig == dig wiki.jb-vpn.uk +short
SSL Certificate Requirements
[edit]Before obtaining an SSL certificate, ensure:
DNS A record is created
[edit]DNS has propagated (can be verified with nslookup)
[edit]Port 80 is accessible (required for Let's Encrypt validation)
[edit]Related Documentation
