HI,

Are you seeing anything in your nginx `access` or `error` logs? What does the Kibana log file say? Make sure to set `logging.verbose: true` in your `kibana.yml` as well, so we can get detailed output. When I navigate to `http://localhost:8080` , I am asked for a username/password. Once I enter it, nginx correctly forwards me to Kibana, which works as expected.  
Here are few more such discuss issues with ngnix auth issues- hope it helps.

Thanks
