h!

Is it possible to change the hostname that comes in the form request  so 
that outbound links have the hostname i want?

I have an app in an internal network that I want to make visible from the 
outside with an nginx proxy, all relative links work correctly, this would 
be the example of configuration in nginx:

location ~* ^/(\w+)/static(?:/_[\d]+\.[\d]+\.[\d]+)?/(.*)$ {
         rewrite ^/(\w+)/static(?:/_[\d]+\.[\d]+\.[\d]+)?/(.*)$ 
/some-folder/statics/staging/$2 break;
    proxy_ignore_headers Cache-Control;
    add_header Cache-Control public;
    add_header Cache-Control max-age=31536000; # seconds, one year
    proxy_pass_request_headers  on;
    proxy_pass https://some.internal.server.local;
}

location ~* ^/(.*)$ {
    rewrite ^/(.*)$ /staging/$1 break;
    proxy_set_header Host "some.internal.server.local";
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_ssl_server_name on;
    proxy_pass https://some.internal.server.local;
}


That works correctly for any relative link, the problem comes with 
uploads, whose links are being generated for some reason including the 
hostname:

https://some.internal.server.local
/app/download/some.object.a051462ffdcb77a3.746d706c32417038422e6a7067.jpg

and how it happens, i can't change the internal server name and need to 
pass the proxy_set_header Host or I will not have access to that host... The 
only thing I can think of is telling WEB2PY to use a fixed host name when 
generating the links.
