Block

Hello, new to all this so I apologize if my question is not formatted
correctly.

We only allow https from outside our network (via hardware firewall).
I want to block access to usr/share/nginx/html but allow access access
to
usr/share/nginx/html/folder1

I have figured I need to be working with the ssl.conf file and have
successfully blocked /usr/share/nginx/html/folder2 I just cant figure
out
how to deny all for the main html folder while allowing /folder1 to be
accessible.

If I add:
location / {
deny all;
}

It blocks just fine I just cant figure out how to allow /folder2

Thanks!

location /folder2 {}

This does assume there are no other location{} blocks; and it does allow
more than just /folder2/ contents.

http://nginx.org/r/location

for the details, and how to allow only /folder2 contents (by using two
separate location{}s).
