I can disagree -- nginx does everything that pound does, plus will handle your vanilla static files and even use fcgi to handle php and other stuff

Reading these responses I think a generic config is required that can work with various front-end servers - pound, lighttpd, nginx and apache. What I want to achieve is something that allows us all to avoid having to write new config files to fit in with whatever the current favourite distro uses.

The requirement really came out of moving a typical dual-apache setup from RedHat-style to Debian-style, and finding the Debian-style apache config setup completely different. It would also be nice to make use of <IfDefine> sections in the Apache config to easily switch between different types of setup - single server, dual-apache, apache+nginx etc.

cheers
