Hi.

I am having trouble with a location regular expression.

location ~* ^/(library|conf|appg) {
> return 403;
> }
>

It is my understanding the following regular expression should match any uri
starting with library, conf or appg. However, this is not the case.

For instance.

http://domain.com/appg/
>

will match fine where as

http://domain.com/appg/.file
>

wont match (causing the file to be downloaded)

Am I doing something inherently wrong or is this a bug in Nginx?
