Here is a example Apache configuration:
<VirtualHost 192.168.1.100:80>
ProxyPass / http://myswikihost:8000/
ProxyPassReverse / http://myswikihost:8000/
ServerName myswiki.mynet.com
<Directory "/">
AuthName "swiki"
AuthType Basic
require user myuser
Satisfy all
deny from all
order deny,allow
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
This works for me. BTW, search appears to work on your site, or have
I missed something?

Subject: [pws] reverse proxying
Hello all,

Has anyone accomplished this; if so; can you help me out. I haven't set up
a virtual host, but I've gotten reverse-proxying to the point that requests
coming to http://myserver/coweb/ are passed to http://myserver:8888/ ,
but I can't go into any of the swikis without creating reverse proxies
for each of them (as I have done for the first swiki on our server).
Also search doesn't work at all (if this doesn't make sense you can
witness it on our test server
http://magdalene.ce.columbia.edu/coweb/ .
Thanks,
John
