Hello group,  
I have setup nginx as reverse proxy only (web users \<-\> reverse proxy  
\<-\> Firewall \<-\> backend web server). I would like to monitor the  
performance of nginx reverse proxy, if you know any tool/monitor that  
can do the job please let me know. I really appreciated.  
Thanks,

Hello,

Try RRD tool and perl using the nginx stub status. There is a bundle  
available here: [nginx.eu](http://www.nginx.eu/nginx-rrd.html)

Thanks,  
Merlin
