Re: RE: How to redirect to a different host & Balancer Rules

[Dan <dm...@tsiware.com>]

Thanks for the Idea Vinod, unfortunately I don't have control of the jsp 
content, so that rather elegant solution won't work.  However I'm definitely 
tucking that away in my mental rolodex.  Thanks for the tip!!!

Does anyone else know if there's a way to redirect to a different host I was 
looking at the balancer rules, and it looks like I might be able to use them, 
but I don't quite understand how to do this.

The rule I need to develop is basically
the requested URL of http://{webhost}:8080/shopping needs to be redirected to 
http://{shoppinghost}:8080/shopping.

Anyone know how to do this?
