The State at the Beginning Earlier I had made progress on my server to serve different websites from inside containers, including refreshing SSL certificates. But the server started to be aging, and for both learning and future proofing purposes I started looking at migrating to something newer. And, I never really finished all the old work anyway. Instead I have a new container in use that has SSH running inside, that should be migrated as well.

Coincidentally I have had multiple needs for serving websites from behind containers instead of directly from the host. After some practicing, which can be also described as ”hacking without carefully documenting what I did”, I decided not to explicitly describe my setup but how I achieved (towards) my goal of serving my web sites (3 on the same server) from behind containers. This will enable me to consider using things like PHP or other notorious pieces of software thanks to a level of sandboxing.

Lately I needed to mirror a website as fully as possible, and ended up researching a bit more than my previous times I’ve done so. Here I’m just dropping a note that I ended up doing the following: wget -mkxp --adjust-extension -e robots=off https://myurl.com/ Here -m is: -r -N -l inf --no-remove-listing or in long form: --recursive --timestamping --level inf --no-remove-listing and the rest ie -kxp are, in the same order
