Re: [squid-users] reverse proxy for Exchange 2000 OWA

Many thanks, Henrik.
But allow me to clarify a bit.
I should have the following configuration

in /etc/hosts add
<server Internal IP address> <server_external_name>

in squid.conf
httpd_accel_host <server_external_name>
httpd_accel_port 80

this is about OWA, sorry
will I be able to use an OWA name other than the Exchange2000 host name?

Regards
/dl
