------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  Note: As an Nginx newbie, it's probable that the original author of this wiki post just didn't know which headers to suppress or how to suppress them :-) I tried "proxy_hide_header Authorization" and "proxy_hide_header WWW-Authenticate".
  
+ 
+ Note 2: While "proxy_hide_header" does not work, setting the header Authorization to "" seems to work.
