Hi Josh, Think you missed one of my messages...I had managed to get it working..yes, you have to give the proxied hostname ie instead of giving <Directory proxy:/xxx/>, it should have been <Directory proxy:http://a.b.c.d/xxx/>...I also tried it with Location directive..that was also working...

An easier way to handle this is probably <Location /xxx/> ... </Location> Joshua. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
