Hi all,
I have a little problem, I have configured apache to be a reverse proxy,
and it authenticates
through a Domino server. My problem is that when I hit the site I am
challenged several
times, rather than once. Has anyone seen this weird behaviour before in
apache? I am
using apache 2.0.46 on RH ES 3
Yes, fundamentally because you are using Apache to handle this
when you really should be using squid. The problem is that the
individual threads (processes) inside apache won't hold each
others' copies of the authentication information, and so each
needs to authenticate you separately.
If you used squid, for example, you'd find that it did the
proxy-authenticate thing correctly and it would all work fine.
That's a very simplistic answer to what's really going on in
there and not entirely correct, but as close to correct as I
can get without pulling the internals of squid and apache
apart and laying them out on the table.
I remember also getting it to work once using a product called
Delegate -- you might find it on google.
