Hi Aldo, I'm glad to hear that you enjoy the project, especially considering your significant experience in this field! Let us know if you miss some features that you used to rely on with your custom solution.
Back to your question, the Redirector is the right place to look at. In your case you want to transparently redirect the request to another server, without involving the client/browser. So you need to use the MODE_CONNECTOR mode: Redirector r = new Redirector(ctx, "http://buu:7001/${relativeUri}#[if query]?${query}#[end]", Redirector.MODE_CONNECTOR); Now, you just need to create a VirtualHost for "foo:8080", attach your ProxyApplication to the host using the "/bar/" URI pattern and return the Redirector instance above as the root of your ProxyApplication, via the createRoot() method. You can look at org.restlet.util.CallModel for the list of URI template variable names, and at org.restlet.util.StringTemplate for the URI template syntax. Note that the template syntax and variable names will be changed significantly for 1.0 RC1 but the Redirector feature itself will still exist and behave similarly.
