Hi,

after reading everything I could find about accelerating proxies I still cannot solve my problem described in "accelerating proxy and default page (index.html)". Therefore I would like to summarize what I would like to do and why:

We have JBoss with it's integrated web server running in the LAN which NOT accessible from the outside. Squid is running in demilitarized zone not for caching and accelerating the HTTP-requests, but to redirecting external requests to the internal JBoss server (which would be not accessible from the outside otherwise):

Internet -> FW -> squid (192.168.200.12:80) -> FW -> JBoss (10.0.10.102:8100)

So I assumed this to be the correct setting for squid:

        http_port 80

        http_accel_host 10.0.10.102
        http_accel_port 8100
        http_accel_single_host on
        http_accel_uses_host_header on

Now I have read, that I should use port 80 for the internal web server (which I don't want) or use a redirector (which I don't understand; is there any explanation about this?). Also it has been said earlier in this forum that I should use "http_accel_uses_host_header off". Why? As you can see on my previous posting, this does not work either.

Finally, can you give me a clue how to set up the acl's? Is it bad by just using "http_access allow all" since I want everybody from the net to connect to this accelerating server?

Totally confused now. Hope somebody could enlighten me. Thanks.

Andre
