When you come to add the second user, you will see that you want one
file with all the user/pass details.

You will probably also see that it will be good to use a map
(http://nginx.org/r/map) to set a variable for the port to connect to,
based on $remote_user. Then your main config becomes just "proxy_pass
http://127.0.0.1:$per_user_port;".

Note that I have not tested that, and expect that there may be some more
subtleties involved, such as perhaps requiring an explicit proxy_redirect
directive.

Note also that you will probably want to set a default value for
$per_user_port, and make sure that something sensible happens when that
value is used -- probably a response along the lines of "something isn't
fully set up on the server yet; please wait or let us know", so the user
is not confused.

Good luck with it,
