[users@httpd] Proxy pass and proxy pass reverse problem with $


Apologies ... Putty cut and past problem with previous ;-(

Please help.

I am using proxypass and proxypassreverse to try and redirect People to
my internal web site....


Website is 
                    http://egshs.wa.edu.au/weather


Extract

 RewriteEngine on
 RewriteLog       "/var/log/httpd/rewrite.log"
 Rewriteloglevel  4

 RewriteRule    ^/weather$           /weather/index.htm  [R]

ProxyRequests off
ProxyPass            /weather   http://ms-weather.egshs.local
ProxyPassReverse     /weather   http://ms-weather.egshs.local


Problem .....

The internal site uses a $ sign (eg Doc$1) in a lot of its web pages.  I
suspect that this is upsetting the proxypass rewrite engine :-(

e.g. 

  http://egshs.wa.edu.au/Doc$1/Destination.htm 

which SHOULD be

  http://egshs.wa.edu.au/weather/Doc$1/Destination.htm


Is there any way of telling the proxypass to ignore the $ signs :-( Or
is it something else ..... ???
