THIS A DRAFT I NEED TO CHECK SETTINGS

You need to have installed

- **Nginx** `dietpi-software install 85`
- **Transmission**
- **Generated Certbot certificate**

Create file in `/etc/nginx/sites-dietpi/transmission.conf`  
`sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-dietpi/transmission.conf`

Copy this text to **transmission.conf** file

```auto
location /transmission/ {
        proxy_read_timeout 300;
        proxy_pass_header X-Transmission-Session-Id;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

        # if you changed the port number for transmission daemon, then adjust the
        # folllowing line
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:9091/transmission/web/;
        }

        # Also Transmission specific
    location /rpc {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:9091/transmission/rpc;
    }

```

Restart nginx service  
`sudo dietpi-services restart nginx`
