[squid-users] reverse proxy

Hi list,

A few idle moments on my hands I wanted to investigate getting a Squid box working behind my ADSL router. Squid would be listening on, say, 80 to incoming requests. ADSL router would be port forwarding 80 to it. I have a machine which runs a lot of web browseable add-ons all listening on different ports (nzb, image library, my EPG for XBMC etc). My setup would be similar to: I own foo.com. If I browse to http://nzb.foo.com traffic would be proxied to my linux box nzb handler, the nzb app would be listening on port 8800 but it would all go over 80. Similarly, I browse to http://image.foo.com and I would be directed to the box's image server listen on port 8081 – again traffic would be seen as if over 80. Again if I went to http://epg.foo.com it would be proxied to the EPG listening on 8082.

I've not really had any exposure to this sort of thing but I think the concept is possible..? Any pointers or sample confs would be great to get me started…
