Subject: Proxy server..
Hello!
I am fairly a novice in the world of Web.
I would like to know what are proxy servers and can a server like NCSA HTTPD
for Windows work as a proxy server. I read the FAQ on this subject but couldnot
get much information.
Are there any security related implications regarding this?
Thanks much in advance for all the feedback!
