Sorry about the shyness, although even if I wasn't, the access is ip restricted. I appreciate your looking at the file and thanks for the advice, I'll continue to investigate the backend. The thing that strikes me as odd, is that the links on the returned page are that of the proxy i.e. http://xyz2:port/xyz. This may sound like a dumb question, but from my point of view (network engineering) please forgive. Which would you recommend using, mod_proxy or mod_rewrite for doinf this type of traffic manipulation? -----Original Message----- From: Boyle Owen [mailto:Owen.Boyle@xxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, February 07, 2006 9:30 AM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: [users@httpd] Apache 2.055 Best Practices > -----Original Message----- > From: Rosado, Rodolfo CTR MDA/IOM [mailto:Rodolfo.Rosado.CTR@xxxxxxx] > Sent: Dienstag, 7.

I don't normally like ploughing throw other people's config... but I had a look at yours since it wasn't too long... There are no obvious redirects (unless in .htaccess files) so my guess is that it is the back-end server that is issuing the redirects. Something like: client (request) -> apache, apache (proxy request) -> backend, backend (redirect to backend) -> apache apache ( " " " ) -> client client (reads redirect, new request) -> backend NB the client must have a path to the backend... So check out the backend's config. BTW, if you weren't so coy about your domain names etc., we could check it out directly.
