Proxy Directives
We are not concerned here with firewalls, so we take them for granted. The interesting thing is how we configure the proxy Apache to make life with a firewall tolerable to those behind it.
site.proxy has three subdirectories: cache, proxy, real. The Config file from ... /site. proxy/proxy is as follows:
User webuser Group webgroup ServerName www.butterthlies.com Port 8000 ProxyRequests on CacheRoot /usr/www/APACHE3/site.proxy/cache CacheSize 1000
