[squid-users] RE : [squid-users] load balancing
-Message d'origine- De : Gert Brits [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Envoyé : jeudi 22 juillet 2004 13:40 À : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Org Objet : [squid-users] load balancing Hi All Please could I have either some ideas or solutions to the following: I work for a BIG company, providing internet services for many customers. I am planning to install a load balancing plan for our cache server, which will obviously load balance, but will also have a redundant feature. What can I do this with? You may perform using either solution like LVS (Linux Virtual Server) http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org or load-balancing dedicated equipment such as Radware Cache Server Director (or Web Server Director), F5 BIG IP, Nortel Alteon, Cisco (I wouldn't recommend since they are not good in this market, really). The thing is you have an equipment (either special switchs or linux servers) that dispatches the incoming requests to real servers. The load-balancer know the states of each real servers to prevent dispatching requests to an overloaded server. And to avoir single point of failure, the dispatcher is doubled in an active/passive way. Basically have to servers service the caching, but they must look like one server ... I am sure I sound stupid, but just to make sure. I hope it will help you. Sincerely yours, Mathieu.
[squid-users] Reverse Proxy and IIS protection
Hi everyone, We are setting SQUID as a http accelerator for a IIS Web server and we would like to protect a lit bit this server. Does anyone know where I can find a list of regexp to match potential URL vulnerabilities on IIS 4,5,6... ? Thanks in advance for any answer. Sincerely yours, Mathieu MILLET. -- Mathieu MILLET mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[squid-users] Authentication on both reverse proxy and backend server
Hi everyone, Sorry if this is a newbye question but I haven't yet find an answer to my trouble. I would like to setup a reverse proxy that authenticates my users from the Internet. The backend server requires also its own authentication. Of course, both login/password are differents. Is it possible ? If yes, would you mind sharing your idea because for now, I'm failing (despite I think I have already set everything fine : authentication works on squid and on backend server, reverse proxy works...) ? I have seen this working with some sort of Firewall, but I would like to do it with a real HTTP (Reverse-)Proxy server. Thanks in advance, for any answer. Sincerely yours, Mathieu MILLET. PS : I also try with Apache, but I get the same result. (Caching isn't important since merely all the content is dynamic or private). -- Mathieu MILLET mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
