You haven't configured Apache to proxy anything. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.html#proxypass http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.html#proxypassreverse Perhaps your application server has an apache module for this, or a configuration guide. -- Eric Covener [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
