Hi list,
A few idle moments on my hands I wanted to investigate getting a Squid box
working behind my ADSL router. Squid would be listening on, say, 80 to incoming
requests. ADSL router would be port forwarding 80 to it. I have a machine which
runs a lot of web browseable add-ons all listening on different ports (nzb,
image library, my EPG for XBMC etc). My setup would be similar to: I own
foo.com. If I browse to http://nzb.foo.com traffic would be proxied to my linux
box nzb handler, the nzb app would be listening on port 8800 but it would all
go over 80. Similarly, I browse to http://image.foo.com and I would be directed
to the box's image server listen on port 8081 – again traffic would be seen as
if over 80. Again if I went to http://epg.foo.com it would be proxied to the
EPG listening on 8082.
I've not really had any exposure to this sort of thing but I think the concept
is possible..? Any pointers or sample confs would be great to get me started…

It works best with apps which can be configured with some public
domain:port separate from their listening ip:port.
Otherwise you get into a bit of trickiness requiring Squid to be
listening publicly on the same ports as the app to catch any absolute
URLs the apps send out.
