I've cleared the rules, and then applied your recommended iptables command. Unfortunately, it puts me right back to where I started. When the www.example.com redirects to http://www2.example.com:8098/login.aspx, it never gets there and times out. The rule that I put in to forward port 8098 requests to 3128 seems to have gotten me further (at least an error message rather than a timeout) Thanks to everyone for their help thusfar. > On Mon, Jun 2, 2008 at 1:17 PM, Indunil Jayasooriya <indunil75@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >>> When a user points to www.example.com, that webpage/server redirects > > this is an port 80 request > > >>> them to http://www2.example.com:8098/login.aspx > > then, it should redirect to port 8098 > > So, I think , pls try below. > > iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -m tcp -p tcp -d www.example.com > --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8098 > > > > -- > Thank you > Indunil Jayasooriya >
