I have two goals with my apache server that I hope are not mutual exclusive. I use apache to proxy requests to a backend user using modproxy and rewrite rules. (the backend is zope) This works great. I also use apache to handle ssl. I also have virtual hosts, some ip based, some name based. My rewrite rule captures all requests to /zs and proxies them to zope. I have created html docs that have client side redirection for those vhosts that only serve content from from the zope back end. However, this redirect seems to take too long for some. So I would like to put a server side redirect on all requests to '/' so they are redirected to /zs which the rewrite rule will capture. I still want to retain the ability to serve content out of the file system, ie from htdocs. Will the redirect on '/' also capture requests for /static.html and other content that lives in the file system? There are also other redirects as well that I want to preserve. -- -- David Bear College of Public Programs at Arizona State University --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
