Nginx seems to ignore proxy_set_header Host directive

Hi all

I am trying to use nginx to get remote access to various service on my home
server, via proxy_pass redirection to various subdirectorys

For example, owncloud server with apache, pyload with it's builtin http
server, xbmc web interface, ...

I access the webserver via a static IP adress, and not via a domain name.

Here's a simple conf file for nginx. 


########################################################
server {
        listen   80; ## listen for ipv4; this line is default and implied

        root /hdd/www;
        index index.html index.htm;

        server_name localhost;

        location /pyload/ {
                proxy_redirect off;
                proxy_set_header Host $host;
                proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
                proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
                proxy_pass http://192.168.1.100:8001/;
        }
}
########################################################

I think this setup would be straighforward, but for some reason, all
relative path are not rewriten and I get 502 error for all images, css and
js file.

I would be very grateful if someone had a clue to help me understanding what
I am doing wrong.

Regards
