I have been searching if it is possible to do a one-to-one mapping,
something like ::

location /9000
{
auth_basic
auth_value username9000:password9000
proxy_pass http://localhost:9000
}

location /9001
{
auth_basic
auth_value username9002:password9002
proxy_pass http://localhost:9001
}

Also, ports 9000, 9001 will be firewalled from the public.


Above will ensure that someone wanting to get access to say port 9000, will
have to come via http://1.2.3.4/9000. and must know the credentials
username9000:password9000

Do I make sense?
If yes, can someone please point me out as to how to specify
username:password on the URL basis.


Thanks and Regards,
Ajay
