I have one server on which a domain abc com is hosted with nginx. The ssl certbot is also applied via nginx.

I have lxc container on that same machine in which a traefik is running.

I want to redirect traefik from xyz com to abc com. If i type in browser abc com it should give me xyz com

This is my static and dynamic configs.

```auto

Should Traefik show you the other site (proxy content) or really redirect (tell the browser to load another domain)?

Like i type [abc.com](http://abc.com) and The content should get changed to [xyz.com](http://xyz.com) in browser not the url. Idk what is the best term for it.

Then that’s what your current config should do. Is it not working? What’s the error?

Note that many websites have precautions that this is not possible, with CORS headers and JS.

I get this in logs

- 
  - [11/Dec/2023:11:32:45 +0000] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 404 19 "-" "-" 4 "-" "-" 0ms  
If i remove the tls and entrypoint-https in dynamic configuratiton it will use the service but that would 403 forbidden.  
I wonder why its not using service like this with tls and entrpooint  
x.69.105.1 - - [11/Dec/2023:10:14:18 +0000] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 403 553 "-" "-" 1 "to-runpod@file" "xyz com" 60ms

Do you use the correct filename in `provider.file` to match your dynamic config file?

Try to set `passHostHeader: false`, otherwise Host header `abc.com` will be sent to `xyz.com`.

Enable and check Traefik access log in JSON format.

This below configs works good, although the basic auth don't work as intended. Working on it

```auto
http:
  routers:
    to-runpod:
      rule: "Host(`abc.com`) && Path(`/v1/chat/completions`)"
      middlewares:
        - redir
      service: runpodserv
    dashboard:
      rule: "Host(`abc.com`) && PathPrefix(`/dashboard`)"
      service: api@internal
      middlewares:
        - dashboard-auth

  services:
    runpodserv:
      loadBalancer:
        servers:
          - url: "https://xyz.com"
        passHostHeader: false

  middlewares:
    redir:
      redirectRegex:
         regex: "^https://abc.com/(.*)"
         replacement: "xyz.com/${1}"
         permanent: true

    dashboard-auth:
        basicAuth:
          users:
            - "admin:$Kanger"

```

`basicAuth` uses a hashed password, not plain.

Check the [doc](https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/operations/dashboard/#dashboard-router-rule), you need `/api`, too.

```auto
# Dynamic Configuration
labels:
  - "traefik.http.routers.dashboard.rule=Host(`traefik.example.com`) && (PathPrefix(`/api`) || PathPrefix(`/dashboard`))"
  - "traefik.http.routers.dashboard.service=api@internal"
  - "traefik.http.routers.dashboard.middlewares=auth"
  - "traefik.http.middlewares.auth.basicauth.users=test:$$apr1$$H6uskkkW$$IgXLP6ewTrSuBkTrqE8wj/,test2:$$apr1$$d9hr9HBB$$4HxwgUir3HP4EsggP/QNo0"

```

When you do setup your own routing for dashboard, you probably should not use `insecure`:

```auto
api:
  dashboard: true # On port 8080
  insecure: true

```
