[pmwiki-users] Moving pmwiki directories out of web root

[Athan Dimoy]

Last week I've installed pmwiki in a customer's dedicated webserver, running 
nginx.
Although nginx is an excellent and fast webserver, it doesn't support 
.htaccess therefore i have to do something with pmwiki's directory structure 
security. In its current form, pmwiki uses .htaccess to deny access in 
directories like cookbook, docs, local, scripts and wiki.d.
An easy solution is to deny access to those directories, assigning separate 
"location" entries in nginx configuration. I did that and it works fine so 
far.
A second thought is to relocate all these folders (or some) out of web 
document root. In that case, what configuration variables have to be changed 
to point to new locations?
Any experience from such a setup?
