Title: Question on mod_proxy and mod_rewrite behaviour when a remote proxy is unavailable

Hello,

I just have a very simple question about the behaviour of mod_proxy and mod_rewrite.

Our configuration looks like that :

<VirtualHost 10.10.10.10>
  ServerName www.toto.fr
  RewriteEngine On
  ProxyRequests Off
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.toto.fr$1 [P]
  ProxyRemote * http://www.titi.fr
</VirtualHost>

What happens if www.titi.fr doesn't respond to requests ? I guess that Apache then tries to connect to www.toto.fr... Am I right ?

If so, is there a way to prevent Apache to behave this way ?

Thank you very much for your answer,

Thomas.
