>Can someone suggest me a proxy server to combine with apache httpd ?

 Yep, I was originally running cern, this was slow, and was a pain when
purging incomplete cache entries. I have since moved to Harvest Cached.

 It is VERY fast, and I have it running with around 300 simultaneous
connections.

 There is a mirror of the harvest stuff at 

ftp://ftp.tas.gov.au/unix/harvest/Cache/cached-1.4.pl2-src.tar.gz

 There is also a mirror of the cern stuff in 

ftp://ftp.tas.gov.au/unix/cern/

 If you need a hand compiling Harvest, let me know (Shouldn't have any
problems though)

Yes.  It is a good Idea. However I suggest you have a look around the net
for information on "Bastion" hosts.

Cheers,
