Not able to access the Podman port for mapping privilaged ports on the redhat 9 OS

[KochiServer]

We are having rootless podman running on the host and we have binded the nginx container port 443 to 8443 port in the host side. 

But instead of 8443, I need to access the niginx using port 443 from outside the host. Currently I tried port forwarding in Firewalld and added the rich rules also. Still the port 443 is not listening in the RHEL.

Please help.

The core issue you're facing with rootless Podman is its inability to bind to privileged ports like 443, as only the root user can access ports below 1024. This limitation persists even with firewalld rules. To overcome this, you can implement a reverse proxy on the host to forward traffic from port 443 to the container's port 8443
