    I chopped out the non-murder config options from above to make it simpler
    to see.

    On your frontend you have proxy_authname:murder (so the frontend will
    connect to the backend as user "murder"). On the backend you have
    proxyservers: proxy_murder (so only user "proxy_murder" is allowed to
    proxy for other users). I'm pretty sure you should set proxyservers:
    murder on the backend, or change to proxy_authname: proxy_murder on the
    frontend (sync those two usernames up).
