[users@httpd] Mod_rewrite proxying source ip address

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi guys,

I'm not sure if this one is possible, I'm attempting to use
a mod_rewrite rule to proxy to another URL, but for the 
request it proxies to, I need it to keep the original source
IP address intact. At present, I have something along the 
lines of:

RewriteRule "^/$" http://server.com/startup/now?a=b [P,L,QSA]

Now this works and does what is required, with the exception
that the request to /startup/now?a=b has the source IP
address of the apache server where the Rewrite rule exists.

Is there any way that I can pass through the original source 
IP address in a fashion that it will be recognised as the 
remote address? I think we are checking this via the REMOTE_ADDR
environment variable...

Oh, and one more thing, just to make life a little more fun:
we can't just use a 30x redirect.

Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Greg
