Tom, I put port# in to indicate that we are using a different port than standard on the inside network/server. In this case it is an Oracle SOA server on port 7011. I can assure you that none of my actual rules contains or begins with a # sign. I'm still not sure why my rewrite rules are not working and have been banging on this for a few days now. Scott > i.e. https://myserver.mydomain.com/dir1/dir2/login.jspx gets proxied > to http://internalserver.mydomain.com:port#/dir1/dir2/login.jspx Anything after a '#' in a URL is browser state, the browser neither sends nor receives this data from a server. It's also the comment character in httpd config files, so god knows what that rule does.
