Comment 25 for bug 1407060

Ok once more ;) I was trying to make it clear which bits need to be filled
in with fancy formatting, but I see the launchpad bugtracker has messed
this up by adding asterisks around the part I had put in bold.

So just to make it clear, here it is in plain text. Because it won't work
with those *'s in it. And yes it fixes the problem that Luis is having, I
was having exactly the same! It took me quite some messing around to get it
working ;)

server {
  listen <external port for rainy clients> ssl;
  server_name <FQDN of my server>;
  ssl_certificate /etc/ssl/nginx/znc.pem;
  ssl_certificate_key /etc/ssl/nginx/znc.key;
  # These certs are free signed certs from StartSSL (highly recommended!)
so that you don't get the usual self-signed certs warnings. Not sure if it
will even work without it!

 location / {
    rewrite https://<Server FQDN>:<External port> http://<Server
FQDN>:<internal port that Rainy listens on> ;
    sub_filter_types application/json;
    sub_filter{
    rewrite http://<Server FQDN>:<internal port that Rainy listens on>
https://<Server FQDN>:<External port> ;
    sub_filter_once off;
    chunked_transfer_encoding off;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_pass http://localhost:<internal port that Rainy listens on>;
  }
