      You must read docs. http://nginx.org/en/docs/ngx_core_module.html#include

For you:

> location ~ \.php$ {
> root           /var/www/htdocs/sites/expertinet; <- you should avoid this,
read http://wiki.nginx.org/Pitfalls

include my_fastcgi_params;
> include       
> fastcgi_params;
> }

in my_fastcgi_params:

fastcgi_pass   unix:/tmp/php.sock;
#            fastcgi_pass   127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index  index.php;
fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME      $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
