Change Nginx Version Header

Edit nginx.h

$ vi src/core/nginx.h

find lines:

#define NGINX_VERSION    "0.7.64"
#define NGINX_VER        "nginx/" NGINX_VERSION

Change them as follows:

#define NGINX_VERSION    "0.7.64"
#define NGINX_VER        "kutukupret/" NGINX_VERSION

Save and close the file. Now, you can compile the server. Add the following in nginx.conf to turn off nginx version number displayed on all auto generated error pages:

server_tokens off

Above hack doesn’t work here’s the good one:
edit src/http/ngx_http_header_filter_module.c

around line 48, changing the following line to something like:

static char ngx_http_server_string[] = "Server: yourserver" CRLF;
static char ngx_http_server_full_string[] = "Server: yourserver" CRLF;
