I’ve been looking at the Heroku custom domain feature, which enables to change a url from subdomain.heroku.com to www.whatever.com. Is something like this possible with mod_rewrite or how is this done? It can’t be a simple re-direct, can it? Asked by frequent No rewriting is necessary. They achieve this by adding your domain to the list of HTTP Host headers that will be mapped to the handler that also handles your subdomain under their own [...]

This seems straightforward, but I can’t make it work. I have a pretty trivial webserver that only needs to do two things: example.com/status.html returns a local file (this works) example.com/atom redirects the contents of the firewalled server running on the same machine on port 4000 This didn’t work: RewriteRule ^$ http://localhost:4000 That redirected traffic back to localhost:4000 from the requestor’s point of view (ie, on the client’s machine). My limited understanding of VirtualHost indicates that [...]

We have an Exchange 2010 SP2 system consisting of a single Mailbox/Hub/CAS server and a single Edge server. The MHC server is exposed to Internet users via a TMG 2010 reverse proxy.

We already bought a new certificate for [...]

I’m writing a Backbone.js application that makes use of the HTML5 history API. I would like users to be able to create URLs of the form: domain.com/any domain.com/random domain.com/paththattheuserlikes and have all these URLs routed to my index.html page, where the Backbone router will take the path and process the request appropriately. My question is this: how can I set up Apache to route all requests to that domain to index.html, while keeping the path [...]
