What is the good way for building security system in > this situation? squid (in the ports) is designed to do this kind of thing. Apache is also capable, but I've heard rumors that it's not as efficient as a proxy as a dedicated proxy program (such as squid). If I understand your diagram correctly, what you're really looking for is called a "reverse proxy", so you'll have considerable luck searching for documentation using that term. Good luck. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
