Solution
Nginx is an open source webserver. To install nginx on rocky linux, we use the dnf package manager.
First we make sure the system is up to date:
sudo dnf update
To install nginx you can use the following command:
sudo dnf install nginx
When this command is ready, the nginx service can be started by the systemctl command.
sudo systemctl start nginx
# and we can explicitely check the webserver with:
sudo systemctl status nginx
To check if the ports are in use, you can use nmap.
Hope this helps.
