[TUTORIAL] Quarantine Web Interface Via Nginx Proxy

[Stoiko Ivanov]

We just added a short Howto for creating a proxy exposing the end-user quarantine interface with nginx to the Proxmox Mail Gateway wiki:

https://pmg.proxmox.com/wiki/index.php/Quarantine_Web_Interface_Via_Nginx_Proxy

This can help in providing a more pleasant and comfortable experience for your users in certain environments.
You can for example set a different ssl certificate, which is trusted in your environment only for the proxy.

We're looking forward to feedback!

Hi Stoiko,

Many thanks for this, it's super useful and very timely.

We are rolling out PMG more widely, my users were complaining that we didn't allow remote access to the quarantine page (we blocked access due to potential admin access) however with this we can now allow secure quarantine access.

One comment, should your pmg-quarantine.conf example use the new nginx listen stanza? i.e.

server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name _;
# ssl on;

best regards,

Jake
