Ah. Got that. Thank you. I had just assumed that the name would be the same=
 as the name of the port. I am going to try again. Thanks again.

I'm no expert on mod_security, but my guess, based on reading
https://www.linuxjournal.com/content/modsecurity-and-nginx,
is that previous (to v3) versions of mod_security worked
_only_ with apache.

And it seems likely that the port has not yet been updated to
the newest v3.

Also based on the article, it seems that getting even mod_security
v3 to work with nginx is slightly complicated, as building it
depends on the specific version of nginx that is installed.
