Is there a way to get Apache to reroute HTTP requests to different
ports via the url?
I setup a web page to listen on a port besides port 80 and 443 because
IIS was listening on them, but when the viewer tried to view the site
from a web cafe it was blocked.
How can the main Apache server be made to transfer the request to a
virtual server running on a non standard port? It was IIS I was using
but because it was part of an SBS2003 installation I didn't want to
replace it with Apache on the main port in case it broke the SBS2003
setup.
However I am more interested in the case of Apache, knowing how the
same can be done with SBS is a bonus.
I am also interested in non HTTP requests, is there a way Apache can
listen to the type of header and then reroute the incoming stream to a
different port. I don't expect them to connect using standard HTML
headers. If Apache can't do it, are there some utilities which are
programmed to listen for a variety of common protocol connection
headers on a single port and reroute them to the proper applications?
It will be of much help in the case of a Remote CCTV viewer which
doesn't use any of the standard ports.
