Linux/Apache question

I know this is kind of way out of left field... but the guys here are the greatest support group I know of, and it's DC related anyways so...

here's the thing, I know apache has alot of very cool options, but basically I'm just an apache peon and I wonder if it's possible to get it to forward connections based on the connection header or something?

The reason I'm asking this is I know bphantom has had problems getting enough port 80 pproxies for the roundrobin, and if we could get apache to forward the connection to the pproxy on the same box if it's a client connecting that little problem would be non-existing in the future... since there's an abundance of port 23 and 2064 pproxies 🙂

Hope someone has a clue if it's possible at least, since it would be damn cool to do even if it doesn't affect the RR 😀

I don't know if you could do this, since it would require two different programs to be listening on port 80 for traffic, but for virtual directories for multiple websites on the same server the link below should help.

Apache Info!
 
D.Net rc5.cgi <- this might work. The problem I see with it, is that the clients have to be set to "HTTP+UUE Encoding." Which might cause problems with other RR proxies that simply listen on port 80 (instead of running Apache and doing this forward). Something to at least play with though.

Brad..

 
hmmm that one's pretty cool bphantom, but as you said, it requires the clients to be set to "HTTP+UUE Encoding" which they're not by default ... so it doesn't really do what I was looking for 🙁

I was looking more for a "portforward" feature in the webserver when it got a dnet "kind" connection ... maybe it's just a pipe dream 😛

Hmm i know you can do it in IIS but i have no idea at all about linux, come back in 2 years when i have gotten round to installing it and trying it out 😉
