Greetings, I've read about a way to secure webservers, which must not be directly exposed to the Internet, using a reverse proxy, e.g. MS ISA Server or Squid on a UNIX box.
Now my question would be: Has anyone experience with that? Is it really more secure (compared to firewalling and port forwarding)? Is the MS ISA Server Webpublishing rule (which implies reverse caching) doing an application layer filtering or does it just the mentioned caching? Can a Squid reverse proxy solution fulfill that too? If not, what are the steps necessary to accomplish this? Your input is appreciated. -- Jonas Nagel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
