reverse proxy?

[dnice58]

I've been tasked to figure out a way to use Apache to read the incoming URL (

https://www.example.com)

or (

https://www.example2.com)

and redirect to another internal server on a different port. I am new to Apache and wanted to check with some experts to see if the Reverse Proxy is the right feature to research???

Thanks..

Redirect? That's a simple entry in your /index.php file..

Perhaps you're looking for something more? Explain pls.

Hi

I have a feeling that "redirect" was not the right word. I assume the "another internal server" is not directly accessible from outside. In which case port forwarding may be a better choice.

Sorry, I will clarify.

There is a server in the DMZ accepting requests for sub.example.com. There is no data or site configured on that server. All the content is on another internal server that is not accessible from the outside. So, I was hoping to have the DMZ'd server read the incoming url (there will be multiple) and forward to the internal server on a different port.

Thanks for you help...

So that's either a 1) transparent proxy, or 2) a mod_rewrite pass-thru
