Re: [OT] Good reference for setting up Apache in reverse proxy mode?

[Mike Pelley <mike pelleys com>]

Actually, we're doing this already.  We port forward TCP 80 to the 
internal web server.  However, this is an IIS server and the owner has a 
lack of confidence in IIS security (I wonder why ;-)  So, he'd like to 
put an Apache server in a DMZ and then have it forward requests to the 
internal server.  That way, he can still do his ASP "thing" but have 
Apache keeping direct access away.
