Re: [squid-users] Reverse proxy for multiple backend servers

Hi,

OK ... thanks for the replay ...

Our requirement is, we should have an initial URL
http://proxy.mydomain.com for the proxy server. Clients browser want
to just type simple folder name after this initial URL to look on to
the respective backend web servers ...

thanks,
