Here's what I am trying to do. I have a MS Exchange 2003 Server with Outlook Web Access. Obviously I don't want to subject it to the nasties on the Internet, so I want to set up a Linux box as a "reverse proxy". If it works, the reverse proxy will sit on the DMZ and the Exchange server will live on the local LAN.
I have setup an old PII 266 with 64MB RAM and 10GB HDD. I have installed Debian Woody on it with apache. webmail:~# apache -v Server version: Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) Debian GNU/Linux Server built: Jun 24 2004 22:00:30 I have also installed libapache-mod-ssl. So far so good. I found some instructions at http://seclists.org/lists/security-basics/2004/May/0258.html. It looks like exactly what I need. Now I have a couple of problems: Firstly, there is nothing listening on port 443. Secondly, the instructions mention mod_proxy. I can't find mod_proxy, but there is a file called /usr/lib/apache/1.3/libproxy.so. There is also a package called libapache-mod-proxy-add-forward which provides the file /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_proxy_add_forward.so. Is one of these what I need? I decided it was probably a bad idea to paste all 1049 lines of my /etc/apache/httpd.conf here, so it is available at http://ostc.dyndns.org/Members/david/httpd.conf/file_view. I admit that apache has never been one of my strengths, so I need some help. Later David Kirk
