Many thanks for the help, and some excellent reading :-)
However ... I am still getting inconsistant results, both myself and
my testing off-site people.
Have I done it correctly ? Code below.
I am wondering ... I am proxy-ing to an IIS with its default file set (index.htm).
Is my directory listing restrictions comflicting with those on the IIS server.
For instance ... A lookup of http://egshs.wa.edu.au/weather/index.htm works perfectly, whereas
http://egshs.wa.edu.au/weather seems to fail dismally :-(
Regards
Peter

I do not see this behaviour with IE6.0... The images load first time.

This is a standard prescription for the trailing-slash problem. However, you can avoid the problem entirely by setting ServerName and UseCanonicalName correctly. If you do this, apache will make a self-referential URL automatically and you won't need to bother with mod_rewrite - see http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/server-wide.html#identification for details.
> ProxyRequests off
> ProxyPass /weather http://ms-weather.egshs.local/
> ProxyPassReverse /weather http://ms-weather.egshs.local/
Your use of trailing slashes is inconsistent here. Either:
ProxyPass /weather/ http://ms-weather.egshs.local/
or:
ProxyPass /weather http://ms-weather.egshs.local
(use / on both paths or neither). However, this doesn't really matter - your setup will just lead to a proxy request to http://ms-weather.egshs.local//some-file which still works...
