Hi, I'm using apache 2.0.53 as a reverse proxy for a simple html backend server. Internet <-- http--> reverse proxy <--http--> server on lan I was wondering how a connection keep alive can be activated for the communication between the reverse proxy and server on lan. Is it just a matter of adding an Connection: Keep-Alive header and ifso how do I do that? In my config keepalive is activated (see below). I can see the keepalive on the first connection (between internet and reverse proxy) while dumping, however no connection header is added/used in the second connection (reverse proxy towards server on lan). <<<<<>>>> Minimal Apache config : ServerRoot "/ub/pkg/httpd" PidFile /var/run/httpd-rev.pid Timeout 300 KeepAlive On MaxKeepAliveRequests 100 KeepAliveTimeout 15 LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so LoadModule proxy_ftp_module modules/mod_proxy_ftp.so ### Section 2: 'Main' server configuration User sysdaemon Group sysdaemon UseCanonicalName Off TypesConfig conf/mime.types DefaultType text/plain HostnameLookups Off Listen 195.0.83.244:80 <VirtualHost 195.0.83.244:80> ProxyRequests Off ProxyPreserveHost On # enable Reverse re-writing ProxyPass / http://192.168.5.254:81/ ProxyPassReverse / http://192.168.5.254:81/ # Logging TransferLog /data/system-logs/appfw/testkk/access/2006-06-27 ErrorLog /data/system-logs/appfw/testkk/error/2006-06-27 RewriteLog /data/system-logs/appfw/testkk/rewrite/2006-06-27 RewriteLogLevel 9 </VirtualHost> -- --------------------------------------------------- Able: 1996-2006: already 10 safe years in YOUR company! aXs GUARD has completed security and anti-virus checks on this e-mail (http://www.axsguard.com) --------------------------------------------------- Able NV: ond.nr 0457.938.087 RPR Mechelen --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
