Re: Another numpty question - web servers
Adrian (and others!),
Had a look at orensop - seems very useful indeed.
Is this the cheapest secure reverse proxy around?
Anyone know of anything else that might be able to do the job?
Also quite interested in seeing people's webpages if that is ok to get a

ideas. Anyone willing to provide a few links?
Cheers!
