I have the following setup
Box A (192.168.8.180 - running apache reverse proxy)
Box B (192.168.8.100:808 - Proxy server to connect to internet)
Due to internal reasons, The IP of box A is redirected to http://xyz.mydomain.com/. The reverse proxy uses the proxy running in Box B to connect to internet.
The setup works fine when the proxy does not need any authentication. But When the proxy at Box B needs authentication, all my request to the reverse proxy fails with the following error.
<h1>Unauthorized ...</h1>
<h2>IP Address: 192.168.8.180:1799<br>
MAC Address: <br>
Server Time: 2011-09-21 20:32:16<br>

Here is my apache configuration
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName xyz.mydomain.com
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPreserveHost Off
<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Proxy>
ProxyRemote * http://192.168.8.100:808/

ProxyPassReverse / http://xyz.mydomain.com/

<Location />
Order allow,deny

</Location>
ErrorLog "logs/myerror.log"
CustomLog "logs/myaccess.log" common
</VirtualHost>
Any ideas?
access log says the following

The proxy credentials are correct. verified with browser.
Thanks
