Re: check the presence of a reverse proxy

["joe star" <alan6 () melimail com>]

First, make a traceroute (also on TCP port 80, 443, ... look at tcptraceroute) to check if you can see the final 
machine or if the Firewall (or another router) block icmp_exceeded packets....

But, if you just want to check if the RP works correctly, you'll have to have a look at the HTML protocol. If you uses 
an HTML proxy, you can look at what is send and received by your browser. By the end, if you discover any information 
about your Apache Web server, the your proxy is not correctly configured. 

Sincerly,
