[Metalab] http front-end for linux embedded system

[Amir Hassan]

hehe.. didn't see your answer. i did set up nginx last night as a reverse  
proxy doing also ssl. it does basic http authentication to protect app  
server realms behind it. each realm has different authorization levels.  
btw... the app server is tjws.
