[users@httpd] mod_rewrite question
Hi!
apache 2.0.xx
gentoo
We've got plenty of clients and want to give them possibility to access Open
WebMailer with simple address: mail.cilent_domain.
I read about mod_rewrite and wrote:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mail\..*
RewriteRule ^/$ http://openmailer.our_domain.com
It works but it works through external redirection. How to make it work
without changing the address mail.client_domain??
best regards,
Dariusz Zmokly

Yes, you were right!
And the winner is:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mail\..*
RewriteRule ^(.+) /www_dir/webmailer_dir/$1
Thank you ;)

Never say "didn't work" on a technical mailing list ;-) Describe
*exactly* what happened, and include relevant log messages.
Anyway, this second one is closer, but you probably need to include
the full filename in there as well.

Target is on the same server. Mayby this IS stupid question but how to "Use a
filesystem path or url-path"? I tried to modify
RewriteRule ^/$ http://openmailer.our_domain.com
Instead I wrote:
RewriteRule ^/$ openmailer.our_domain.com (url without the
leading http://)
or:
RewriteRule ^/$ /www_dir/webmailer_dir (the path to webmailer)
but both didn't work.
thank you

Use a filesystem path or url-path pointing to the correct location
rather than an absolute URL.
If the target isn't on the same server, you'll need to proxy to it
using the [P] flag and mod_proxy.
