Comment 1 Joris Guisson 2010-02-02 18:22:55 UTC 
First of all the HTTP server does not support HEAD.

Second how does using keep-alive prevents the webinterface from being proxied ?
Comment 2 tuupic 2010-02-02 18:41:57 UTC 
It was just example, that ktorrent use keep-alive by default.

Nginx use only HTTP/1.0 without keep-alive for backend.

In HTTP/1.0 keep-alive disabled by default and server(ktorrent) must not answer HTTP/1.1 answer on HTTP/1.0 request.
