Share your nginx config please

@PitaJ The relevant part of my nginx config looks like this:

	location / {
		auth_basic "What is essential is invisible to the eye";
		auth_basic_user_file /etc/apache2/.htpasswd;

Hi, guys!
I found this topic experiencing the same nginx problem as described above. I bet it's a usual experience to guard a web resource on a server level. Just redirecting a user to another page doesn't resolve security concerns. It would be great if you won't leave but address this issue.
Really appreciate your work anyway!
