Nginx Configuration

Located at /bigdisk/forgejo/nginx.conf (inside Forgejo container).

Important: Nginx proxies to 172.17.0.1:4001 (Docker bridge gateway IP) since SSO runs on the host, not in a container.

SSL

Self-signed certificate at:

• /bigdisk/forgejo/ssl/next.sso.atlilith.com.crt
• /bigdisk/forgejo/ssl/next.sso.atlilith.com.key

DNS

A record managed via PowerDNS API:

• next.sso.atlilith.com → 10.0.0.11
