 Hello,

I have nginx installed (using the WHM plugin Engitron. All seems to be working however, htaccess files seem to still work (thought they weren't supposed to) and in admin tools, the nginx configuration tool does not appear; htaccess one does.

Sample domain: ukidney.com

Response headers as attached.

Hello Jordan,

we are checking the $_SERVER['SERVER_SOFTWARE'] supervariable, if it contains the word NGINX we assume you are using an Nginx server.

OK thanks.

If running nginx in reverse proxy mode, would this work? It seems to report Apache not nginx when running in reverse proxy.

As I previously said, we are simply checking if such variable is set.
You should contact your host and ask why they removed it
