Topic: Set up ProxyPass of e-smith V5.6

[Ravi Ganti]

Hi,

I am a new user of the e-smith server.  I am trying to set up proxy pass so that I can access a web-server on a machine behind the gateway from the outside.  I was told that proxypass would do the trick.  I installed the proxypass on the sytem using the following cotrib I found on the web: e-smith-proxypass-1.2.0-01.src.rpm

But, I do not see the 'Proxy pass' option in the control panel on the server-manager.  Is this normal?  If so, how do I use the feature? If not, I'd appreciate some guidance in how to get this done.

thanks

-Ravi

That "src" means source. You installed the source files for the contrib, not the compiled programs.

Bill,

Sorry, I should have been clearer in my original post.  I did compile the rpm and installed it and when I check to see whether this package has been installed (rpm -qa...), it does show up (e-smith-proxypass-1.2.0-01)

thanks
