Why do you recommend Squid? I am very interested. I briefly checked out both, and this is what I concluded: - Squid seems more complicated to set up. Even after reading the docs, I still have no idea how to configure this - I asked how to do this on the mailing list, but I guess my question was too basic and nobody was interested in replying - Squid can do LOTS of stuff, but all I want is a reverse proxy - I already have an Apache installation and I know how to use reverse proxying Despite this, I'm always interested in the "best" solution... I would indeed be very curious to know why you think Squid is the best choice. Thank you for sharing!!
