Re: Relay Pages: Incoming to old IIS URL -> Request to new PHP Server for content -> Out to client



I created a reverse proxy system with Apache using mod_perl a long time
ago. Perhaps you could use the Apache 2 features for proxying as they
are not built-in and quite powerful.

Look over this page...

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.html

What I use to do with IIS6 was front the databases with an Apache 2
server set up as a reverse proxy with the gzip compression features on.
It was a great way to speed up the data transfer. With some fancy
reverse proxy and url rewriting you may be able to achieve what you
want. But combining those features together can be tough. They may
call that module chaining. I have not read up on all of the latest 2.2
features.

The name for what I am trying to do is "Reverse Proxy"

Lots of resources on the internet using this as a search term.
