Hi,
I have a mod_perl backend listening on *:81 and a proxy in front of it
listening on *:80, both using mod_vhost_alias configured with
VirtualDocumentRoot /www/site/%0
i.e. www.mydomain.com will have /www/site/www.mydomain.com as it's document

For what it is worth, I once again fixed my own problem by hacking
http_core.c on the backend:
[root@nobel src]# diff -U 6 ../build/apache_1.3.14/src/main/http_core.c
http_core_hack-1.3.14.c

OK, thanks a lot, that does the trick. I tried that earlier
I was going to suggest having the backend server listen on localhost:80,
with the proxying server listening on public addres:80, then the
redirects from either would be to port 80.
This suggestion of Tony's certainly seems like a cleaner solution though.
