Hi friends, I have the following setup. - Java application on WebLogic server sitting behind Apache Web Server in US. - 2nd Apache as Caching Proxy setup in Europe to do local caching for Europe users. This is proxying to the US apache server (not directly to weblogic). Now, I have some JSPs which are sending uncompressed output from weblogic. I want to enable mod_deflate for these JSPs, but with the following condition: --Compressed JSP output should be served only on requests coming from the Europe apache server. --I don’t want compression when the request is coming directly to the US apache server. The reason behind this, is that I want to do a side by side comparison of the performance when an Europe user hits the US apache directly, vs when they come via the Europe proxy. I have added the following custom request header in the Europe Apache configuration. RequestHeader set RemoteUser "yes" I want to enable compression on JSP output only when this RequestHeader is in the request, and I want to do this in the US apache server, so that the data transmission from US to Europe is compressed. Can you guide me on how to do this? How can I check for a custom request header in the request and then conditionally enable gzip compression for specific extension/mime-types?
