Dear List, We would like to run our idea past you and check we are correct in our assumption that this is the way to do it, using: http://squid.visolve.com/squid/reverseproxy.htm We have the situation where we are running a few different domain names on one IP, and not via Apache virtual hosts, but www.domain1.com:81 www.domain2.com:82 etc We want to use the reverse proxy to handle these domain names, so whenever an internet client comes into that IP, for www.domain1.com, www.domain2.com etc. squid proxies the request to the internal Apache servers, which are listening on port 80 or another port. So, if we recompile Fedora Core 4 SRPM with the --disable-internal-dns option and just list our internal apache servers in /etc/hosts then this will be possible, after making squid listen on port 80? The only tricky part is that we have an apache server on the same machine as the one we want to install Squid on, which listens on port 81. We are not sure how to specify a port for squid to redirect to? Maybe we should make these web servers all virtual hosts on one machine. and not bother with the reverse proxy? But we would like to spread the load, and virtual hosts would not do this. Not sure on the correct ACLs though for internet clients though? Many thanks, Gavin. -- Kind Regards, Gavin Henry.
