Hiya, basic_auth is available by default in nginx on OpenBSD. You do not need to compile it with any special flags/settings. Thus you can set your PACKAGE_PATH to a mirror near you and simply do # pkg_add nginx or if you really want to compile it (why?) you can build it from ports $ cd /usr/ports/www/nginx $ make $ sudo make install See http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq15.html for the documentation of the package and ports system. Be aware that nginx on OpenBSD runs in a proper chroot under /var/www, thus you need to create the directories /var/www/etc/nginx/1 and /var/www/etc/nginx/13 and put your .htpasswd files there if you want to use your configuration as quoted above. Otherwise you will get errors like *1 open() "/etc/nginx/conf/13/.htpasswd" failed (2: No such file or directory) in /var/www/logs/error.log The same goes for the document roots. You will need the directories /var/www/mnt-nginx/d1 /var/www/mnt-nginx/d3 /var/www/mnt-nginx/htdocs/Fam for your unaltered configuration to work. Note that basic_auth over unencrypted http might be a weak authentication mechanism for your purpose. Also note that the nginx-package does not bring you the htpasswd program to generate your .htaccess files. htpasswd is in the OpenBSD base system since OpenBSD 5.6 HTH rru
