Opening the default 8080 port to setup a plone site ("PloneSiteName")
independent of NGINX and figuring out how to access plone's
VirtualHostMonster fixed this.

I now run successfully

server {
listen 8443;# Custom port as the standard 443 is taken by kolab
server_name myserver.net;
# SSL is using KOLAB generated credentials
ssl on;
ssl_certificate /kolab/etc/kolab/cert.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /kolab/etc/kolab/key.pem;
ssl_session_timeout 5m;
ssl_protocols SSLv3 TLSv1;
ssl_ciphers ALL:!ADH:!EXPORT56:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:+LOW:+SSLv3:+EXP;
ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on;
location / {
proxy_pass
http://localhost:8080/VirtualHostBase/https/myserver.net:8443/PloneSiteName/VirtualHostRoot/;
}
}

Cheers, Joh
