Be careful with httpd_accel_uses_host_header directive, a request such as:

Get /index.html HTTP/1.1
Host: www.anyurl.com

would success, and your reverse proxy will accept all requests for all
sites,
only your web servers should be accessed by your reverse proxy.

It isn´t need two redirectors for these purpose:

- One redirector for reverse hosting and squid.conf acl for blocking sites.
- One perl redirector with reverse hosting and acls.
