You'll have something like:

     ProxyPass /cphandler/ http://localhost:4321/cphandler/
     ProxyPassReverse /cphandler/ http://localhost:4321/cphandler/

in your httpd config file.

Just point your browser at whatever corresponds to http://localhost: 
4321/cphandler/

If you are running on a different machine than the server you'll have  
to temporarily open whatever port you are using (and based on the  
description of your server below, I'm guessing you *are* running on a  
different machine (if you aren't then it is definitely time for an  
upgrade :-))

I pretty sure I've not seen this before.

it should still be sufficient for a website.
