I'm new to reverse proxy. how do I test these?

small diff, change line 16 to:

	hostProxy map[string]*httputil.ReverseProxy = map[string]*httputil.ReverseProxy{}

New to Golang here - how does this line work? It should kill the process shouldn't it?

log.Fatal(server.ListenAndServe())

log.Fatal(server.ListenAndServe())

It should just listen and serve just like http.ListenAndServe(). It should serve http handlers, run indefinitely, and stop from either a graceful shutdown or an unexpected error
