I basically wrote something similar for the users of mod_proxy_add_forward 2-3 months ago, it's called mod_rpaf and sets r->connection->remote_ip and moved the X-Host: headers into the incoming Host: header and then updates the vhost structure so virtualhosting via mod_proxy_add_forward works. The module can be found at: http://stderr.net/apache/rpaf/ -- Thomas Eibner <http://thomas.eibner.dk/> DnsZone <http://dnszone.org/> mod_pointer <http://stderr.net/mod_pointer>
