Maintainer Note: I hate when I want to use an apps, I must install docker to run it, especially in another OS which is doesnt support docker. So, I modified original nginx proxy manager for FreeBSD. Long live FreeBSD!

This project comes as a pre-built docker image that enables you to easily forward to your websites running at home or otherwise, including free SSL, without having to know too much about Nginx or Letsencrypt.

• Quick Setup
• Full Setup
• Screenshots

I created this project to fill a personal need to provide users with an easy way to accomplish reverse proxying hosts with SSL termination and it had to be so easy that a monkey could do it. This goal hasn't changed. While there might be advanced options they are optional and the project should be as simple as possible so that the barrier for entry here is low.

• Beautiful and Secure Admin Interface based on Tabler
• Easily create forwarding domains, redirections, streams and 404 hosts without knowing anything about Nginx
• Free SSL using Let's Encrypt or provide your own custom SSL certificates
• Access Lists and basic HTTP Authentication for your hosts
• Advanced Nginx configuration available for super users
• User management, permissions and audit log

1. Use FreeBSD
2. Pointing your ___domain to your home network
3. Use Nginx Proxy Manager
4. Done

Originally, the project is designed to run on jail. But, you can run it on your host machine. For example, I will use bastille to create a jail called npm. You can use iocage or ezjail or any other jail manager.

1. Create a jail

bastille create npm 14.1-RELEASE 10.0.2.1

2. Configure port forwarding

bastille rdr npm tcp 80 80
bastille rdr npm tcp 81 81
bastille rdr npm tcp 443 443

3. Exec to jail console

bastille console npm

You can check the script before running it to make sure it's safe for you because it will delete your existing nginx configuration and install the new one.

export DISABLE_IPV6="true" # Optional

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/icaksh/freebsd-nginx-proxy-manager/master/install.sh | sh

1. Disable IPv6 (Optional)

echo 'nginxproxymanager_ipv6="NO"' >> /etc/rc.conf

2. Enable and start the service

service nginxproxymanager enable
service nginxproxymanager start

3. Log in to the Admin UI

http://127.0.0.1:81

Default Admin User:

Email:    [email protected]
Password: changeme

Immediately after logging in with this default user you will be asked to modify your details and change your password.
