      I read somewhere that reverse proxys can cause issue for search engines. Our server is using SQUID. What potential issues there might be?

        This shouldn't be too much of an issue as long as you don't link to pages by the reverse proxy IP address. It usually causes problems in the form of spam attacks. Read through the comments on this post: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/delicious-cloaking-to-combat-spam
