Pound doesn't support any sort of URL transformation such that it would transparently do the replacement you want. Your best bet is to check the URL, and if it matches "^/myapp", forward to the backends, otherwise, redirect to /myapp. Pseudocode: ListenHTTP ... Service URL "^/myapp" Backend Address mybackend Port ... end End Service Redirect "http://myserver/myapp"; End End Regards, -- Dave Steinberg http://www.geekisp.com/ http://www.steinbergcomputing.com/ -- To unsubscribe send an email with subject unsubscribe to [email protected].
