Hi list,

i've tried to get rpc-over-http (outlook 2003) with apache2 and mod_proxy to work, with moderate results.

the connection often fails or reset. i've played around with different configs and different apache versions on my gentoo box. but no luck.

the config i've used is nearly the same as the one posted here http://3cx.org/item/46
and at the end of the site i've posted the results of my testing.

i've tried this a few days ago and found out that the connection sometimes fails or get reset. while sniffing with ssldump i can see that the rpc_in_data/rpc_out_data "http" (header) requests are send in one tcp packet from the client to apache/mod_proxy but the outgoing traffic (from apache to rpc proxy) often is split into more smaller packets (one tcp packet per line). since the rpc traffic is binary data encapsulated in the http body i guess this is a problem!? i have not protocol design knowledge so maybe i am wrong. but there is a mod_proxy extension to get another binary protocol work with mod_proxy. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.1/mod/mod_proxy_ajp.html
so maybe i am not wrong!?

btw. with squid in accel mode it works without this problems and sniffing with ssldump shows that squid does not change the packet size.

btw2. does anybody know if outlook 2003 is able to send a client certificate to authenicate to apache/squid/rpc-proxy whatever? and does anybody know if outlook is able to use a proxy with basic auth to connect to a rpc-proxy? this are 2 important features to make it a more secure and usefull solution. but hey, its M$ ;)
