  The proxy can run in two modes: either open, or bound to a particular
  server.

  When bound to a server the proxy only answers HTTP requests directed
  to that host.  It manages rsync and passes the request through to the
  origin server.

  When unbound the proxy will answer requests for any host.  It can
  either make the connection directly or can forward the request to an
  upstream proxy.
