Yea, I found mod_proxy.so. So I made the entry into vhost.conf but it still goes to the wrong server. That which I am trying to forward is ifolder from the Novell install disc (not the OSS). Do you use sles 11 and ifolder? If I remember right, the ifolder piece has its own small apache instance? If you would like the web address to see what I am talking about, email me off-list.
