I am using private address in all my vhosts and none of them gave me the problem you mentioned. So I do not agree because same url with /portal dropped is still accessible and the root itself is proxied with an Internal IP.

Hi James, it is not an Apache problem, it is a networking problem, you are using a private address, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ip_address#IPv4_private_addresses Cheers Martin -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Supercomputing Center Brno Martin Kuba Institute of Computer Science email: ma...@ics.muni.cz Masaryk University http://www.ics.muni.cz/~makub/ Botanicka 68a, 60200 Brno, CZ mobil: +420-603-533775 -------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
