FreeBSD 8.3/amd64
nginx 1.2.1
jail

default config, but listen is:

server {
listen ip_addr_of_jail:80;
...
}

but

$ telnet 127.0.0.1 80
gets answer from nginx. If I remark this listen directive - nginx isn't answer.

Why nginx listens localhost?

I found something similar to this here:

http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx/2009-February/009947.html

but
server {
listen 80;
allow ip_addr_of_jail;
deny all;
...
}

isn't works too.

Thanks for help.
