I've thought, this would be the most native way but apache experts around me didn't know it. ProxyPass /melonfire/ http://www.melonfire.com/ directive seems to do the job. I'll try it, thanx alot!

[PHP] Web server request redirection
Hi, I have written a small webservice in M$ VS.NET (for some political reasons), which needs IIS to run. I would like not to open M$ IIS server for outer requests, but enable access just through linux/apache(/php) webserver instead. Is there any simple way, how to resend (at least POST/GET) requests in their original form to another webserver behind firewall a send its answer back? I tried fsockopen which gets the result OK. However this approach would, as I suppose, demand to parse answers from the server for Content-Type, etc. Is there anything more simple? Thanx for any hint John -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
