Hi. environment : Apache 2.2, all platforms In the doc. for RewriteRule it specifies : Context: server config, virtual host, directory, .htaccess Similarly, the doc. for ProxyPass indicates : Context: server config, virtual host, directory Does the above mean that they apply also to a <Location> section ? Looking at http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/sections.html it seems so, but I'd like to be sure. Underlying question : I currently have the following directives in a <VirtualHost> : RewriteRule ^/cgi-bin/script.pl$ /getit [P] ProxyPass /getit http://another-host.com/getit ProxyPassReverse /getit http://another-host.com/getit this works fine.I would like however, that *before* the above proxying to the back-end takes place, such requests would be subject to AAA on the front-end server. For this, I would define a <Location> as follows :
RewriteRule ^/cgi-bin/script.pl$ /getit [L]
...
<Location /getit>
Authname something
... (other AAA-related directives)
ProxyPass ^.* http://another-host.com/getit
ProxyPassReverse / http://another-host.com/
</Location>
Would that work ?
I am asking because this is a production server, with no real good test
server available for testing this beforehand.
