To start Nginx and specify a configuration file, you can use the `-c` option. Here is the specific command:

nginx -c /path/to/nginx.conf

Replace `/path/to/nginx.conf` with the actual path of your configuration file. This will instruct Nginx to start using the specified configuration file.

Please note that depending on your system configuration, you may need to run this command with administrator privileges. You can use `sudo` to elevate permissions, for example:

sudo nginx -c /path/to/nginx.conf

Ensure that you have properly configured the specified Nginx configuration file to avoid any errors or startup issues.
