Thanks for clarifying that.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_rewrite.html and look for "cookie" for details. Something like:
[CO=name_of_cookie:%{HTTP_COOKIE}:your_domain]

Subject: [users@httpd] Reverse proxing through apache where backend server users cookie authentication
Hi Guys,
I am trying to use apache as my reverse proxy for my backend server which uses Cookie based authentication.
I am using mod_rewrite for the proxing part and am able to come till the login page.
But am unable to login to the system.
I suspect that it has something to do with the cookies not being reverse proxied or something.
I am using Apache 2..0.54 on a windows XP system.
Can anyone please tell me what probably could be the issue with my configuration?
Regards,
Rajiv.
