-# A sample configuration for The Red Matrix on Nginx.  One should also take care to block access to dot files, etc, in their standard.conf.

+# Red Nginx configuration
+# by Olaf Conradi
+#
+# On Debian based distributions you can add this file to
+# /etc/nginx/sites-available
+#
+# Then customize to your needs. To enable the configuration
+# symlink it to /etc/nginx/sites-enabled and reload Nginx
+# using /etc/init.d/nginx reload
+##
 
+##
+# You should look at the following URL's in order to grasp a solid understanding
+# of Nginx configuration files in order to fully unleash the power of Nginx.
+#
+# http://wiki.nginx.org/Pitfalls
+# http://wiki.nginx.org/QuickStart
+# http://wiki.nginx.org/Configuration
+##
+
+##
+# This configuration assumes your domain is example.net
+# You have a separate subdomain red.example.net
+# You want all red traffic to be https
+# You have an SSL certificate and key for your subdomain
+# You have PHP FastCGI Process Manager (php5-fpm) running on localhost
+# You have Red installed in /var/www/red
