Listen 192.168.0.2:80 NameVirtualHost 192.168.0.2:80 <VirtualHost 192.168.0.2> ServerName abc.mydomain.org ProxyPass / http://def.mydomain.org/ ProxyPassReverse / http://def.mydomain.org/ </VirtualHost>
and the main ip address of my interface is 192.168.0.1 (eth0), and 192.168.0.2 is only an alias to the same interface (eth0:0), . everything is fine, 192.168.0.2 listen to port 80, and the request to this ip address with host header abc.mydomain.org will be proxied to def.mydomain.org. The only problem is that def.mydomain.org get http request from ip address 192.168.0.1 , and not from 192.168.0.2. So, how can I tell apache to use 192.168.0.2 instead of 192.168.0.1 if it makes http request to def.mydomain.org ?
this sounds like a question for the user list
no, AFAICT there is no way to get mod_proxy to bind the client side of the socket to a particular IP before it connects that socket to def.mydomain.org... the interface the kernel uses to route the connection will be the client (source) IP that the server on def.mydomain.org will see... potentially you could hack mod_proxy do to a bind do some source IP address before connecting
maybe there are other tricks, but I don't know them
