openstack swift as a cache proxy for nginx, swift proxy report 401 error when authenticate

[Andrew Hutchings]

Hi Amy,

I suggest trying to talk to the Swift community. If you can't get any 
more information than that out of the Swift logs it is going to be 
difficult for you to determine what it is actually looking for.

In general though you probably shouldn't be using a web browser to talk 
to an OpenStack API.

Kind Regards
Andrew
