nginx redirecting to wrong port

[Jodok Batlogg]

hi,

nginx runs behind a big-ip loadbalancer. the load-balancer accepts  
connections on port 80, but connects to nginx on port 8080.
whenever i request a directory without trailing slash, nginx redirects  
to the directory with slash, but on the wrong port.

http://www.mysite.com/directory -> http://www.mysite.com:8080/directory.

any idea how to tell nginx, that the port is 80?

thanks
