I am trying to setup nginx as a reverse rpoxy server in front off several IIS web servers who are authenticating using Basic authentication.
(note - this is not the same as nginx providing the auth using a password file - it should just be marshelling everythnig between the browser/server)
Its working kind off - but getting repeatedly prompted for auth by every single resource (image/css etc) on a page.
upstream my_iis_server {
server 192.168.1.10;
}
server {
listen 1.1.1.1:80;
server_name www.example.com;
## send request back to my iis server ##
location / {
proxy_pass http://my_iis_server;
proxy_next_upstream error timeout invalid_header http_500 http_502 http_503 http_504;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_pass_header Authorization;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_buffering off;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
}
