Is it possible to setup tinyproxy as a forward-proxy and reverse-proxy at the same time?


I want to setup tinyproxy as forward-proxy and reverse-proxy at the same time. Is it possible? If yes, what does the config look like? And is there any limit or concern?


Solution

  • Found the following instruction in tinyproxy documentation:

    # When using tinyproxy as a reverse proxy, it is STRONGLY recommended
    # that the normal proxy is turned off by uncommenting the next directive.
    #
    #ReverseOnly Yes
    

    So I guess it's not recommended to use it as forward proxy and reverse proxy as the same time.
