I mean, not to add a layer of complexity for you, but I think embracing
docker and containers would vastly simplify what you're doing (or trying to
do) ... I was incredibly intimidated by docker, until I forced myself to do
it, and then like most tech things, I found it to be quite simple.

I'm certainly not an expert, but I'm proficient enough for my homelab.

I think it would make things easier for you.
