<pre wrap="">Hi Chris,
That is an excellent idea. I would be very interested in such a module
as it would allow me to use nginx to proxy a bunch of dynamic j2ee
applications. I'd be interested in working on the companion connector
for tomcat if one doesn't already exist.
The major stubling block I can see is integrating the avahi resolver
(for lack of a better word) into Nginx without blocking.

Making Avahi non-blocking wouldn't be difficult. If Avahi is
long-running, you can put it in a separate thread and send information
back to Nginx via writing information to a pipe (since Nginx isn't
thread-safe). I'm not sure how Avahi works, but you might want to use
the a timed event (there are functions available for this in the Nginx
source) as a trigger.<br>
