RE: [users@httpd] HTTPS Rewrite Question?

Plain text please...

A rewrite rule allows the user to request one URL but be served the content from another URL. This can be done by proxy and so is transparent to the user (ie, the user doesn't see the backend URL) or by a redirect (ie, the browser location windown changes to the backend URL). A typical application of a rewrite rule is when you update a site and want old URLs still to work.

You can do what you say you want if the user requests  https://www.mydomain.com and if you then proxy him to  https://www.mysecureserver.com/mydomian.com (which can even be an internal server, not necessarily on the internet). As long as the cert has the common name of www.mydomain.com then it should work.

Is this what you had in mind?

Subject: [users@httpd] HTTPS Rewrite Question?


 
I do not believe this is actually possible but if it is great.
 
What I would like to do is setup a rewrite rule or something that would https://www.mysecureserver.com/mydomian.com to look like https://www.mydomain.com.
Would doing this defeat the purpose of having the secure cert or can I do that and if so how?
 
Thank you
