Run caddy with nginx on same server

[DoggoLover]

Hi, is it possible to run caddy together with nginx on the same machine? I would use caddy just for reverse proxy on specific domains, not on ports 80 and 443

Yes it’s possible to run Caddy on different ports, but Caddy needs to be accessible on ports 80 and 443 for Automatic HTTPS to work, because those ports are where ACME issuers attempt to reach Caddy to solve the ACME challenges to prove that you control the server.
