This will work just fine.  Thanks.  I would redirect / to Exchange normally but it actually sends them somewhere else right now.

What about this:

 

If the URL does not start by /[Ee]xchange the user is redirected to /Exchange... I also suggest that if the user requests the root path /, he gets redirected to /Exchange

 

RewriteRule ^/$ /Exchange [R]

 

RewriteCond $1 !^/[Ee]xchange

RewriteRule (.*) /Exchange [R]

 

The above rules imply that the only path accessible through the reverse proxy will be one prefixed with /Exchange.

Hello,

 

We are using reverse proxy an exchange server behind the firewall.  So far everything works fine but I wanted to put a rewrite script in place in the event they users don't type /Exchange/ and do something like /exchange (missing case and backslash).  Can anyone assist on creating the rewrite rule for this?

 

Thanks,
