    Hi

    we use Apache as a front end server. For some requests, Apache serves as a proxy and passes on the request to a backend server. Is there a way to set the timeout for the connection between Apache and the backend server? If the backend server does not respond in 5 sec, we want Apache to return 504 gateway timeout to the client.

    Thanks in advance!

    Have you tried ProxyTimeout 5 ?
