Yann, This works. Thank you very much. Would you consider this a safe arrangement?
Here's what I did. To make it work I did the following. 1. Added a dns subdomain for www.mydomain.com called forum.mydomain.com pointing to ip of www.mydowain.com 2. Added a link in my html http://forum.mydomain.com 3. Uncommented proxy_module and proxy_http_module in /usr/local/etc/apache24/ httpd.conf 4. Added below to httpd.conf <VirtualHost *:80> ProxyPass / httpd://internal_lan_host_ip/phpBB3 ProxyReverse / httpd://internal_lan_host_ip/phpBB3 ServerName forum.machinemanagement.com <VirtualHost> 5. restarted httpd service Bret On Tue, 2018-02-06 at 09:51 +0100, Yann Ylavic wrote: > On Tue, Feb 6, 2018 at 8:50 AM, Bret Stern > <bret_st...@machinemanagement.com> wrote: > > I have apache24 running on freebsd. > > > > Can I configure virtual host to direct a request for forum.mydomain.com > > to an internal webserver on my network > > > > eg; DocumentRoot "forum.mydomain.com" > > This would be for local documents. > > > or "xxx.xxx.xx.xxx" > > > > I tried using Proxy mod but not sure how to setup. > > LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so > LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so > <VirtualHost *:80> > ServerName forum.mydomain.com > ProxyPass / http://internal_webserver/ > ProxyPassReverse / http://internal_webserver/ > </VirtualHost> > > > Regards, > Yann. > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@httpd.apache.org > -- Bret Stern Machine Management Industrial and Commercial IT Services 707-775-9792 (cell-text-direct)
