Description

Hello, great work and thanks.
Is it possible to use the tutorial as seen in the following video for load balancing?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QE26N9cHE2M

I tried setting the specific .conf file in /data/nginx/proxy_hosts to read/write/execute for everyone and then I "sudo nano" it adding what is mentioned in this video. It worked after restarting NginxProxyManager container but I get redirected to the first only selection. Can you guess on what might have gone wrong and give a piece of advice. A good thing to do is integrate this if you please...

Thanks a lot, again.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked load-balancing tutorial and the specific configuration under /data/nginx/proxy_hosts, then reproduce the behavior in the NginxProxyManager container after a restart. Determine why requests are redirected to the first selection; done means the documented configuration works without manual permission changes and distributes traffic as intended.
