Hello. This is for a docker instllation. My setup is as follows, all machines are local within my network.
Peertube host:
local x86-64 machine with Ubuntu server 20.04 using docker
Reverse proxy
another local Ubuntu server 20.04 machine only used as a reverse proxy hosting nginx proxying about 10 other servers within my network
My docker-compose.yaml:

I’m assuming I won’t need the webserver, certbot, or postfix blocks since I have an nginx proxy already and SSL is terminated there so I’ve commented those out. Please correct me if I’m wrong. I am having trouble with the nginx conf as I’m not sure what to change within the configuration so that it suits my use case. For reference, this is what I have and it doesnt work:
Nginx conf hosted on reverse proxy server. I’ve commented out both the ssl certificaate locations as they will be generated automatically when i run certbot:
# Please check your Nginx installation features the following modules via 'nginx -V':
# STANDARD HTTP MODULES: Core, Proxy, Rewrite, Access, Gzip, Headers, HTTP/2, Log, Real IP, SSL, Thread Pool, Upstream, AIO Multithreading.
# THIRD PARTY MODULES: None.

What changes do I need to make to any of these files when running a reverse proxy on another machine?
