RE: apache2 reverse proxy cgi problem

More info on my reverse proxy cgi problem:

Here is a line of what I presume is the error log entry on the main server
for the cgi error I am getting:

[Thu Jul 12 11:57:21 2007] [error] [client 192.168.2.2] client denied by
server 
configuration: /apache$root/cgi-bin/cgi_main

So something is telling me that the server configuration is set to deny the
client (the apache reverse proxy?) access to the cgi-bin?

The httpd.conf does have this entry:

<Directory "/apache$root/cgi-bin">
    AllowOverride None
    Options None
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from 10.2.1.0/24
</Directory>

However this app runs from any client (browser) just fine. Is it possible
that I need to write the proxy heard to appear to be coming from the 10
network for this to work? The error log does indicate that the reverse proxy
is a 192 address.


Also basic first question I should ask: Am I correct in thinking that the
proxy is transparent to cgi apps running on the main server, cgi does not
have to be running on the reverse proxy to make this work.

Regards, Jeff

Jeff what is in your error log on the back-end/main server?
