Hello to all,  
I have a problem with the configuration of Nginx and Rancher … I hope someone can help me …  
Basically I can not reach the container using the public “name” but only using the private ip and the port that I have configured.  
I think it’s a problem of NGINX configuration but I do not understand where the problem is … Everything is redirected to the rancher …

My structure is as follows:

Virtual Machine 1 (with Public IP)  
Docker with 2 containers:  
NGINX and Rancher (with Load balancer (to redirect the various calls to the correct container))

Virtual Machine 2  
Docker with:

- Rancher Agent
- All the containers I need set up with correct VIRTUAL\_HOST and with correctly configured DNS records (example: container1 -\> cont1. XXX .com, container2 -\> cont2. XXX .com)

Thanks so much!
