Hi,

> Nginx does not ask user and password with the following configuration:

That's because you're returning 403 (Forbidden) instead of 401
(Unauthorized).

I should update README file, because people get confused by this ;)

> postgres_rewrite no_rows 403;

-postgres_rewrite no_rows 403;
+postgres_rewrite no_rows 401;
+more_set_headers -s 401 'WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Restricted"';

You'll also need ngx_headers_more module for this to work:
