... it seems my karma has failed me this afternoon [if someone would fix my karma to modproxy, I would be greatly appreciative.]
Introduce the proxy_walk for <Proxy > sections. This patch takes advantage of the new map_to_storage hook to override the default mod_http TRACE behavior, and eliminate the <Files > and <Directory > block processing. This is the next step in cleaning out the <Directory > processing. It would be more elegant if the proxy: prefix weren't required or used. Feel free to extend this solution. Before you even think to complain about <Files > being gone, consider that there is no way for the Proxy server to detect the difference between /somessi.shtml and /somessi.shmtl/with/some/args. We don't have the concept of path_info the way that the 'real' server would. So <Files > really hasn't been useful in any meaningful way. I'm going on with the next part of the core patches, this one is required before mod_proxy will run again. Also (at the end) are some changes that use the cross compatible VC5/6/7 debug flag (the /ZI flag isn't recognized by VC5). Bill
