Peter,
I don't remember all the details of this thread, but you might even be
able to get away with not using rewrite rules.
If your image files are referenced in the database, you could simply
have Apache (or IIS) serve on another port.
Your Active4D code would generate HTML that would use absolute paths,
e.g., <img src="http://same.ip.address:8081/img/1234.jpg"; alt="Image for
1234" />
Requests would hit A4D directly. Personally I prefer the other way
though, because using Rewrite allows me to filter oddball or malicious
requests from ever hitting A4D.
best,
Brad

Thanks for the responses Brad and mehboob
Does the customer already use ISS on the server?
- nope. Active 4D is doing all the serving. ISS is switched off. The
only part of the internet OS/S services we use is the ftp server for
uploading content
If it isn't already enabled and configured and they don't need to
integrate ISS with other Windows services, you might want to consider
installing Apache
- yes. I think I do. Specially since I happen to have Apache plus all
the documentation on my Mac Powerbook where I do all the development
work anyway
