Thanks to everyone that responded to my questions. Nginx has a great
community around it!

It has become clear that I need to learn more about the HTTP protocol. I
am starting with the O'Reilly book "HTTP The Definitive Guide".

Does anyone have other recommended reading to help my understand how HTTP
