  • Me too looking for that's, but behind Cloudflare. I got 400 and i'm sure is related due to NTLM. That's maybe can help you https://caddy.community/t/doesnt-work-when-reverse-proxy-windows-admin-center/6408 or https://community.cloudflare.com/t/400-bad-request-with-cloudflare-ssl-on-windows-admin-center/134501 – Sauron Dec 07 '19 at 15:08

This is possible, but requires NGINX-PLUS (Paid/Commercial) to gain access to the "ntlm_auth" function.

http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_upstream_module.html#ntlm

Caddy seems to be the best option at the moment, but they are lacking documentation. I have started a thread. It may be possible to use Caddy + NGinx, but as I haven't gotten Caddy Working yet... I can't confirm.

  • I have this running with Windows Admin Center in HA on a multi-node S2D hyper-v cluster. The WAC role is given a static IP resource. – david Sep 18 '20 at 03:34
