Reverse Proxies, enter the Matrix at your own risk


Tags :


I entertained a Google the other day on Domino 6.5.1 and reverse proxies.  Well after some hunting around, I discovered that from release to release and product to product, reverse proxies are a mystical being.  It takes a level 5 or greater wizard with powers of redirection and multiple port casting abilities (Jess that was for your reading pleasure) to silence the TCP beast.  So I started conjuring up a grid of ingredients and thought it might be wise to share it.  Now this is only a very partial list (meaning no vendor hate mail please) done quickly, but gives you a starting point
