Using "if" is absolutely fine if all you're doing is issuing a return directly from it. It's only when you try to do things /after/ an "if" successfully matches that it's considered evil ... > 2°) Needs modifying each and every location block.

Moving the return to the most appropriate place in the config shouldn't be too tricky for the OP to figure out ... > I was trying to think about something more scalable, self-contained and > generic. ;o) What I suggested would work, AFAICT, with a single map, and a per-server{} "if($not_me){return 503;}". That's hardly onerous, I'd say ... YMMV, Jonathan _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list nginx@nginx.org http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
