reverse proxy for smtp/pop server?


Hi everyone,

First my setup:

All guest Os's are CentOS 5.3

guest # 1: http server with Apache
guest # 2: ftp server with proftp
guest # 3: qmail server for pop3, smtp and squirrel mail.

I am trying to create virtual web servers that will handle http, ftp pop3 and smtp. I know that I can use a reverse proxy to handle http and ftp, but how do I direct the traffic to the qmail server?

The reason for this type of setup is so I can lock down each guest to minimize the security risk from the ftp server.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

zog

Moved to server - question has nothing to do with virtualisation, even
though the hosts are VMs.
