[kwlug-disc] Logging all output from Apache?

[Khalid Baheyeldin]

Apart from whether this would be useful or not ...

Seems like a custom reverse proxy can do this.

The idea is to have a "tee" like function in the proxy: it logs the HTML
response to a file AND passes it on to the requesting browser.

So the actual Apache origin server can run on a non standard port, e.g.
8080. The proxy would run on port 80, and just pass the requests back and
forth, with only the loggin added.

Look into existing proxies, e.g. Squid, or even simpler proxies based on
Python, if you don't have a high traffic site.
