Hi all:

I met a problem and do a google search and find nothing.

1. The topology is :

1. nginx actes as a reverse proxy for [www.abc.com](http://www.abc.com)
2. [www.abc.com/index.html](http://www.abc.com/index.html), it is embedded a picture in the index.html;
3. The picture should get from  
[att.ab.com/att.php?p.874.1578428.258.jpg](http://att.ab.com/att.php?p.874.1578428.258.jpg).
4. Access [www.abc.com/index.html](http://www.abc.com/index.html), the only issue is that the picture  
does  
not display/

1. the configuration is as following：  
server {  
listen 80;  
server\_name [www.abc.com](http://www.abc.com);

$remote\_addr;  
proxy\_set\_header X-Forwarded-For  
$proxy\_add\_x\_forwarded\_for;  
client\_max\_body\_size 50m;  
client\_body\_buffer\_size 256k;  
}

1. Anyone can give me some help?

I am very appreciated your help.  
Thanks

BTW: NGINX has compiled the http\_referer\_module.
