Greetings


I am having some problems with Internet Explorer 6 & 7 using pound as a 
reverse proxy. I am not using HTTPS, just plain HTTP.
Let me explain in more detail how pound is being used. We are using pound as 
reversy proxy to manage some subsites at http://oacsrocks.org , each of this 
sites runs as a service at localhost:port, after being setup the user is able 
to browse to <username>.oacsrocks.org and enter his/her trial site of 
openACS, this works fine using firefox and Opera, but while using Internet 
Explorer we get constant "Page cannot be displayed" (or something like that, I 
get it in spanish), and some "Internal Server Error"

Here is an example of my pound configuration file, please note that in the 
actual pound.cfg there are over 300 Service entries.

Any help or tip on how to resolve this issue will be greatly appreciated.


User    "pound"
Group   "nogroup"

Daemon  0
Alive   30

RootJail "/var/lib/pound"

ListenHTTP
        xHTTP   1
        WebDAV  0
        Err503 "/oacsusers/serverdown.html"
        Address 72.232.68.148
        Port    80

Service
                HeadRequire     "Host: (www\.)?someuser.oacsrocks.org"
                BackEnd
                        Address 127.0.0.1
                        Port    10008
                End
        End

Also on the pound log entries, I often see this error while using IE:

error flush headers to xx.xxx.xx.xx: Connection reset by peer

And it is always there when I get an error, usually Server Not Found.

Hi Ceasar,

I am not sure if this is a pound issue, I have had the same problem 
running other reverse proxies with the same configuration(but maybe 
there is config for pound that can work around the issue). Our solution 
was to have a dedicated reverse proxy, back then we only had about 4 
servers now we are close to 20.
