Yes I have a domain, ex, mydomain.com, I have as A-record going to that IP. The issue is that I want when someone types in mydomain.com in the address bar to forward to http://00.00.00.00:8080/mywebapp/welcome.action and still display mydomain.com. I need the urlrewrite to forward mydomain.com to http://00.00.00.00:8080/mywebapp/welcome.action but it wont accept the mydomain.com to be forward, it only accepts anything that comes after mydomain.com, for example, mydomain.com/mydomain.ca, the mydomain.ca gets rewritten only, not the mydomain.com part, which is what i want rewritten.
