I am trying to configure nginx as reverse proxy and I have some  
problems and doubts.

First, the settings are as follows:  
Nginx 192.168.1.1  
Apache 192.168.1.2

this is the original configuration [http://pastebin.com/T3P6D6tV](http://pastebin.com/T3P6D6tV)

I will assume that the settings that I’m sending is not the best or the  
best.

Now, my question is this.  
nginx being in a different server than Apache, I have doubts as to the  
upstream and server configuration.  
For example, within the server, I need to define the root path? if so,  
as I define it for files that are on the other server?  
and now, being defined as that what I have now, is showing no images or  
css.

PROXY settings are clearly defined? I believe that understanding these  
parameters that might work for a better way.

could help me fix this? I’ve been searching google possible answers,  
but I find myself alone with nginx configurations found on the same  
server.

thanks  
I am aware of your comments (:
