Hmmm.   Are you doing this on *nix or NT?   I have been using the the proxy
support on our Apache/Zope/Lotus Notes server.   It accomplishes what
we need.   I tried several of the various *cgi implementations and could
never
get any of them to work to a satisfactory level on NT.   From reading
between
the lines on most of the docs and mail list contributions, these CGI
implementations
and better under *nix than they are under NT.

All that being said, this is implemented on a corporate Intranet where the
daily hits
are only measured in hundreds and not thousands, so your mileage may vary.
