Hi, It works! Thank you very much Ask. Now I have my application servers in different non-standard HTTP ports and using the proxy module I can centralise access through the 80 and 443 ports thus avoiding firewall problems and the like. Besides, using the ErrorDocument directive and an SSI script I can show a proper error message when one of the servers is down, instead of letting the user waiting with "contacting host...". As I mentioned to other people, IMHO this could be a nice feature (an extra http header with the original IP) to add to mod_proxy isn't it? Well, many thanks Ask. regards, ------------------------------------------- Daniel Lopez Janariz ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Web Services Computer Center Balearic Islands University -------------------------------------------
