[users@httpd] Rewriting for Reverse proxy style setups

Hi everyone,

I am using Apache in as a reverse proxy to proxy a host of different
things. I have a successfully managed to proxy web based applications
like TYPO3, DotProject and the likes. The one that causes me grief is
Domino Web access.

I have nailed it down to two problems.

1. All elements (scripts, etc) have absolute references to others so
the documents always need to be relative to the root

2. There are various absolute references in the HTML specially in the
form of <input> tags. They need to be re-written.

If I point the root of the reverse proxy to the Domino web access root
then everything works like a dream. However I wish to provide a
virtual URL such as http://revproxy/domino/

Has anyone dealt with this before? Any resources will be helpful.

Thanks a lot for sparing your time.

Any ideas about a list for proxy_html module?

mod_proxy_html is the only way to deal with this as far as I know.
Google for it.
