Well, I've been staring at this and stabbing around a bit blindly in the configuration file, playing with this, but I admit total and complete intellectual breakdown.
I have one hostname/IP that I have rundig index my site at, and another that I want reflected in the links in the hitlist. For example, say I have a URL like: http://192.168.1.21 that I specify in htdig.conf. Rundig indexes my site at this URL - it is the only way presently rundig can access the site; it is behind a router. When a user searches and returns hits, I want all of the path and file information to stay the same, but the IP address/URL to be different (in this case, an external internet address), such as: http://248.22.19.123 So a URL that is indexed as: http://192.168.1.21/bigdir/fileabc.html Should appear in a hit list as: http://248.22.19.123/bigdir/fileabc.html So I searched the archives of this list, and some other users were pointed at the directive: url_rewrite_rules I have to admit here, I am unable to understand on any basic level the explanation at the example. It seems that I want to simply replace a relatively simple "192.168.1.21" with "248.22.19.123", but I'm looking at that example, and I can't seem to understand what it does. The example in the documentation is: url_rewrite_rules: \ (.*)\\?JServSessionIdroot=.* \\1 \ (.*)\\&JServSessionIdroot=.* \\1 \ (.*)&context=.* \\1 What does this do? I think if the example had some of examples of URLS before and after the rules were applied I might be able to make sense of it (sort of a rosetta stone). I'm not a big regex guy. I don't need them often and am making an effort to learn them but I'm sort of a beginner. I seem to need them more and more suddenly, lately. Can someone shed some light on my problem, and if you understand the above example, can you help me understand what a URL would look like before and after the directive does its job? I feel a bit of dolt, presently. -CPH ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
