Reverse Proxy Solution

oradke
Hi!
A repeatedly asked feature of ASL is a reverse proxy. I, too, had to look for a solution in order to securely publish an Exchange server's OWA. The best solution I found is "Pound" (http://www.apsis.ch/pound), which works flawlessly so far. I was just curious whether some of you know this software and possibly any security risks it might have.
If pound is working as good as it seems to, maybe the Astaro people could consider implementing it into ASL. It's really easy to configure and would cover a very important feature.

    THoehne, no matter how you look at it, there is going to have to be a connection allowed from DMZ to INT if you want to integrate Exchange with Active Directory.
    (either the proxy talks to INT Exchange server, or proxy talks to DMZ Exchange server which talks to INT AD server(s).)

    With a proxy, it shouldn't be a big risk, esp if the proxy isn't running Windows and if the firewall rules are setup right.
