Reverse Proxy IIS

[wesleyfraser]

Hi Guys,

I hope someone can help me, we are trying to setup a reverse proxy similiar to what Apache has, but we are really struggling.

We have tried a couple of solutions but nothing seems to work.

We are trying to redirect a external request, to a address locally that could look something like this http://10.1.1.30:7001 but the user should only actually be seeing http://10.1.1.40/Access/

Any Ideas?

If I recall, you might need ISA installed first. A few guys at work were trying to get a reverse proxy working as well in order to access our CRM system from the external web. I'll ask them what eventually happened and post back here.

Thanks, for the quick reply.

Do you have a idea how much ISA costs?

An alt to getting ISA would be using Squid cache proxy. But first do your research, and find what works for you. If you want multiple gateways then ISA 2004 wont work.

I would recommend doing the Squid proxy option.

Have a look here, the application is a bit different to what you are trying but the basics stays the same.

Hi Guys, I tried setting up squid over the weekend but had no luck, does anyone have any experience with squid?

Hey there

I'm running squid at my school, but only as a normal proxy server, not reverse caching. I have read about it in squid documentation, and it looks a little complex to set up. Squid itself can be a serious pain to set up and get going with that conf file.

When trying to set up squid, what seems to be the problem?

Maybe I can help out a little

I pretty much don't know where to start... I have downloaded the required files.
