Thank you very much. It seems that http://www.apachetutor.org/admin/reverseproxies is the one I need to follow to solve the issue. While I'm doing so, I'd like to ask one more question:
My original requirement is to implement a maintenance page. In other words, all I need to do is to display a simple page with a simple message saying that system is down for maintenance when we have to bring down the back-end server. Not sure if setting up a reverse proxy for this purpose is a good idea. Is there any other way to achieve the same goal?

If (as Joshua suggests) you've got a javascript redirect, it can be seriously challenging: you'll need mod_proxy_html's ProxyHTMLExtended (for script embedded in HTML), or one of the sed-like filters (mod_sed, mod_substitute, mod_line_edit) if it's in a separate .js file. -- Nick Kew Application Development with Apache - the Apache Modules Book http://www.apachetutor.org/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
