Hi, I am an end user of Apache HTTP server. I have a need to create aliases. We use Apache HTTP through Oracle Application Server 10g.
Oracle support told me to use mod_rewrite, mod_alias to create aliases. I have been able to put aliases in httpd.conf file to make it work. While I read mod_rewrite, I got the impression that I might be able to bring our application using http://myhost.com<http://myhost.com/> instead of http://myhost.com:7779<http://myhost.com:7779/>. Meaning without typing port number in the address bar even though it is not port 80. Although I read several documents regarding mod_rewrite, I did not get clear instructions how to use it. Can someone tell me please how to use mod_rewrite and whether port number can be hidden through mod_rewrite? Thank you. puran
