}

指令

auth_http

syntax: auth_http URL

default: no

context: mail, server

With this directive you can set the URL to the external HTTP-like server for authorization. A description of the protocol can be found here .
使用这条指令你可以设置URL像HTTP服务器那样的验证。协议描述可以看 这里

auth_http_header

syntax: auth_http_header header value

default: no

context: mail, server

With this directive you can add a HTTP header and value during the identification process. This makes it possible to use a shared secret to ensure that the request was answered by nginx.
使用这条指令你可以添加HTTP头和值到验证进程中。这个使得可以用共享密码来却不请求得到Nginx的响应

For example:

auth_http_header X-NGX-Auth-Key "secret_string";

auth_http_timeout

syntax: auth_http_timeout milliseconds;

default: 60000

context: mail, server

With this directive you can set the time out for authentication process.
使用这条指令你可以设置验证进程的超时时间
