Thanks again Brian, this was a great help. On a related issue, I need to do the reverse proxying in connection with SSL. Are there any pitfalls I should pay attention to or would you have any general comments? Alexander >>> brianvh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 23.05.2005 15:35:17 >>> I'd say you have it almost 100% correct. The portion that's off is your step 2. In my reverse-proxy set-ups, I never use mod_proxy's directives. I always use mod_rewrite, since I'm almost always in a situation where I need to pass additional information from the front-side to the back-side of the proxy. Every time I've tried to do this, using ProxyPass to handle the proxy work, it's always executed in the wrong order, so now I just use the [P] flag in a RewriteRule. -Brian --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
