Hello!

I am pretty newbie to nginx and having problem on protecting my links. I am using valid_referers but is it possible using cookies for make it stronger?

For example I set cookie uid with nginx's userid in 'location / {}' and check somehow under 'location /download/ {}' for cookie uid. Is it possible or just a dream? Userid was just an idea and not necessary. And any other ideas are welcome as well because cheating referer is easy task.

location /download/ { if ($cooke_NAME = '') { return 403; } }
