[users@httpd] reverse proxy/ mod_rewrite
Hello,
I set up a reverse proxy which works fine. But if an external users wants to
access folder1 on the internal server http://web1.example.com he has to use
http://www.example.com/web1/folder1.
What I need is to rewrite this address so that web1 is omitted thus to reach
folder1 an external user only has to type http://www.example.com/folder1
I thought to use mod_rewrite. I read that Rewrite Rules are usable in
conjunction with "ProxyPassReverse". Unfortunately I didn't find any more hints
on this. Just this one sentence.
Does someone know of a tutorial/"how to" where there is some more explanation on
how to use ProxyPassReverse in conjunction with mod_Rewrite? Or is there a
better solution to this scenario?
Any advice/how to is highly appreciated.
Regards
Susan

It would be easier if you showed us what you already have. From the
vague description above, it seems like you could simply use
ProxyPass /folder1 http://web1.example.com/folder1
ProxyPassReverse /folder1 http://web1.example.com/folder1
