Re: Apache Reverse proxying - WAS Introduction and first questions



Hi Mark,

The ProxyRequests On directive configures Apache as a forward proxy - which
could potentially allow Internet users to use it as a proxy to other
Internet sites.
As this is probably not what most people want when using Apache as a
reverse proxy, there is no need to set ProxyRequests On, and it is probably
better to specifically disable them using ProxyRequests Off.
This still allows Apache to function as a reverse proxy, but prevents it
from acting as a forward proxy.

HTH,

John
