Hi,

I am running a file hosting site.

Now using lighttpd with mod_secdownload.

How do i use nignix to run file hosting site ? Now main site have php and all other servers have just lighttpd installed. If i use ngnix on file servers, i need to install php too ?

if i use

http://wiki.nginx.org//NginxXSendfile

I need PHP on remote server, then if main server send a request to remote file server, the remote server nee to validate the request by connecting to main server. That looks more work than mod_secdownload.

Is there anyway we can easily build function of mod_secdownload ?

Thanks,

Yujin

Have you looked at http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxHttpSecureDownload?

Thanks for the reply.

It looks good. but

Only tested in old version of ngnix, not on nginx 0.7.59

It will be great if ngnix add it as part of distribution like lighttpd do for mod_secdownload, so it always work perfectly.

May be i need to wait for time before switching to ngnix.
