mod_proxy security
- by brad
I'm on Debian Lenny using apache2. in my proxy.conf I tried adding
Allow from localhost
as suggested in some other forums to get proxying to work. Didn't work. It only worked if I say
Allow from all
My question is this. Are there any security implications to this Allow from all directive? Most people were saying to make this as limited as possible, but "all" is the client right? I want anyone regardless of their IP to be forwarded properly. Is there a better way to configure this?
