Hello just a quick question

in lighttpd i was able to pass the username and pass from the url to php backend

but nothing happens in nginx?

let me explain

lets say you have a URL like this

http://userX:passY@exa@

i expect my php backend to have user and pass entries in the $_SERVER variable as happens with lighttpd

am i missing something with nginx? is it even possible?

$echo userX:passY | perl -MMIME::Base64 -lne 'print encode_base64 $_' dXNlclg6cGFzc1k=

proxy_pass http://example.com/bleh.php; proxy_set_header Authorization "Basic dXNlclg6cGFzc1k=";
