what's the simplest way to serve php files through an alias?

[Ilan Berkner]

Thanks for the advice.  When I do it this way, I get an error (nginx error
log):

2010/10/03 00:27:33 [error] 20239#0: *6447
"/usr/local/nagios/share/nagios/index.php" is not found (2: No such file or
directory)

so you can see that nginx is adding /nagios/ to the end of the root
directory and so the file is not found (generating a 404 on the browser).

What would be the correct way to address this issue?
