+There's a lot of scattered info about nginx. This is what I've deduced from reading various blogs, Debian READMEs and the [nginx wiki](https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/topics/examples/fcgiwrap/).
+
+For Debian I suggest installing nginx from [dotdeb](https://www.dotdeb.org/instructions/). They provide the latest stable versions.
+
+For cgi install ```fcgiwrap```
+
+Here is a full sites-enabled/example.com configure for hosting ikiwiki on the root domain, example.com:
+
+```

+For SSL tips this [gist](https://gist.github.com/plentz/6737338) is a good source of information. Use [letsencrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/) to get free certificates.
