Sorry if we're entering into "duh" territory here, but quite simply are
there non-performance benefits to be gained from a reverse proxy
configuration. I'm thinking in terms of security for the most part. Say,
a squid reverse proxy sitting in the DMZ in a reverse proxy
configuration for a website on the internal network.
I see Apache can also do reverse proxy, which was surprising to me, or
is it not quite the same thing?
