Normally you create a new config file /etc/nginx/sites-available/newserver.conf for the new server and link it from /etc/nginx/sites-enabled. To use nginx as reverse proxy, you configure SSL in nginx (ssl_certificate, …) and in the location section you use proxy_pass to the non SSL server at localhost. proxy_redirect is also needed, but that only modifies the Location … Read more
cacert.pem is a collection of trusted root certification authorities. You can’t use these to secure your own site. There are a number of reasons, but mainly: you don’t have the matching private key.

A number of registrars provide trustee services that allow the registration of a .FR domain to people/organisations that don’t qualify directly and your domain … Read more
Generally, no. It’s important to understand that the domain only references a nameserver; the DNS records aren’t actually stored with the domain registration at all. When you transfer a domain name, most gaining registrars will leave the nameserver associated with the domain unchanged, so your DNS records will keep working as long as your DNS … Read more
Yes, its perfectly normal and an often used scenario. Just configure your, for example, Apache server with the same virtual host(s) on both webservers. Remember that hostname/domain is a separate thing from IP address, so server A will have one IP, server B will have another. To control which server you reach when typing the … Read more

As a test, I set up that subdomain on one of my domains and … Read more
