Hello,

I've been trying to find out if it's possible, but I haven't found anything yet.

I'm running Apache 1.3.24 & mod_proxy as a forward proxy for the internal subnet 10.0.0.0/24. There's also an external IP bound to the same server.

Now, whenever someone does a proxy request, apache binds to the internal IP first and tries to do a DNS lookup for the host in the request. As there isn't any DNS server in the 10.0.0.0/24 net, it fails and _then_ binds to the external IP and succeeds.

How to force Apache to always bind to the external IP for outbound connections?
