# Using NGINX with Fathom
Let's say you have the Fathom server listening on port 9000 and want to serve it on your domain, `yourfathom.com`.
We can use NGINX to redirect all traffic for a certain domain to our Fathom application by using the `proxy_pass` directive combined with the port Fathom is listening on.
Create the following file in `/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/yourfathom.com`
```
server {
server_name yourfathom.com;
location / {
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:9000;
}
}
```
### Test NGINX configuration
```
sudo nginx -t
```
### Reload NGINX configuration
```
sudo service nginx reload
```
