如何在HTTP响应标题中更改服务器名称？

Question

Is it possible to change your server name in HTTP Response Headers from nginx to something else. I want to do it to confuse prying eyes and enhanced security.

Answer 1

You will need to go into the core code, find where this is, change this and recompile Nginx.

Not worth the trouble really.

There is the server tokens directive that will hide the version number. http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpCoreModule#server_tokens .

Not much use in terms of security either really but at least not so much trouble to achieve.
