What you suggest would be security problem because it would allow anyone to use your RP to attack hosts on your network, or on external networks. Apart from that there is another mechanism (RewriteMap) that allows you to build the target URL dynamically. And no, neither ProxyPassReverse nor any other mechanism allows you to rewrite the Location response header in such a setting. That said, I believe that those applications that do not use X-Forwarded-For will use the Host header to determine the host portion of the URL when doing a redirection. If that is the case you can set "ProxyPreserveHost On" and you would not need to worry about ProxyPassReverse. -ascs -----Message d'origine----- De : pdt_p [mailto:pinlie@xxxxxxxxx] Envoyé : mercredi 12 décembre 2007 05:01 À : users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Objet : Re: Apache mod_rewrite/mod_proxy conflict? Hi.. I forgot to mention, the reason why I asked about this dynamic URL because I have more than 1 internal server and the ip address/hostname for each internal server that I have to connect to is returned from url parameter. for example: - http://<myReveseProxyHostName>/testing/myserverB/otherPath --> http://myserverB/otherPath - http://<myReveseProxyHostName>/testing/192.168.0.88/otherPath --> http://192.168.0.88/otherPath pdt_p wrote: > > Hi... > > from this solution: > RewriteRule ^/testing/(.*)$ http://myserverB/$1 [P,L] RewriteRule > ^/(.*)$ http://myserverA/$1 [P] ProxyPassReverse /testing > http://myserverB/ > > the original server url is fixed.
