Hello, I would like to log to the general access log and also to a  
separate  
log 404, 403, 500, 501, 502, 503 responses. Is there a way of doing  
this? Is  
anyone doing this?

Currently nginx is running in front of fastcgi and I would like 404 to  
be  
handled by the fastcgi backend (front controller pattern).

Thanks.
