I took over a domain that was previosly hosted on anther server. The new web 
portal works fine. We still need to access the old portal, which is accessible 
via a nonstandard port like http://oldserver:8080. However, the old web portal 
contains internal absolute links, which now of course point to the new portal. 
So the old portal is broken.

I tried to implement some rewrite rules to prevent the new server to accept 
requests from the old server, but this does not seem to work. I tried:

      RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^123.123.123.123$
      RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://123.123.123.123:8080/$1 [P]

      RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^123.123.123.123$
      RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://localhost:8090...

(123.123.123.123 represents the IP of the old server). So if the request comes 
from the old server, send it back. If not, process the process local.

The problem is that REMOTE_ADDR does not match the IP of the other server. 
There might be a proxy between. 

Is there a solution, or did I shoot into my knee?
