Hi,

If you have something like :

http {
location / {
proxy_pass http://backend;
}

location /conf {
hidden;
<other stuffs>
}
}

if you request for /conf externally you should hit
http://<backend>/conf via the proxy_pass. The nginx /conf is
accessible only from a subrequest.
Is it what you're trying to achieve, or do you have a different scenario ?

Matthieu.
