Question, how do you set up the reverse proxy stuff? I'm really new to Apache and I found the documentation to be not as noob-friendly as the PHP or Python docs.
For example, I have multiple Calibre libraries and an Apache server with external address somerandom.dyndns.org. How do I get the multiple servers to resolve to the following?
mom:8080 -> somerandom.dyndns.org/mom
dad:8080 -> somerandom.dyndns.org/dad
peskybrother:8080 -> somerandom.dyndns.org/peskybrother
mybooks:8080 -> somerandom.dyndns.org/books
myfanfics:8080 -> somerandom.dyndns.org/fanfics
I currently have two virtual machines running Apache 2.2.11 and one virtual machine with XAMPP 1.7.0, all under Windows XP Professional SP3. The Apache and XAMPP installations are using default settings which are likely unsecure so some pointers on hardening the server would be helpful, too.
