Scripts

I use the nginx as a reverse proxy on the synology box. The advantage is I can use ssl/https to connect to the reverse proxy where it terminates and then forward the connection to the given "backend" server. This way I can use the 443 port for connecting to all my servers. The difference is only in the URL which I use. So for example normally if I would like to directly connect to the mlnet webGUI I would use a URL like this http://www.whatever-you-wa.nt:4080/ but after using the nginx the URL gets "simple" like http://www.whatever-you-wa.nt/mldonkey/ such a solution must not work always like in case of the mt-daap/applerecords applet which hardcodes the URL.

• Oh well another point is the certificate. I didn't took the time to make one for myself so I am stuck with using the synology supplied one. But this may eventually change. Isn't a big deal.
• Another thing is the mount -t proc none /proc command out there. If this script is invoked several times then the ds complains because /proc is already there. Up till now I haven't seen any ill effects. So case closed for now.
