Apache Virtual Host - Seperate Servers

Hello,

I currently have 2 servers say, dev.domain.com and mail.domain.com

now port 80 goes to dev.domiain.com. and I only have one external IP address which resolves to the dev server.

Now here is my problem which I have not be able to figure out.

on mail.domain.com, I have a website , http://mail.domain.com/mail

what settings would i put in the vhosts file on dev.domain.com such that when I go to

http://domain.com -> http://dev.domain.com
http://domain.com/mail -> http://mail.domain.com/mail

Now since port 80 main.domain.com, also how do I get apache too pass the data from mail.domain.com site www.domain.com/mail?

Thanks,

Nadin

It would be easier to just set the mail to listen on a different port, like say 85 or something and have your NAT pass port 85 to the other server. Otherwise you would need to do a bunch of different voodoo to make it work.

jaxom's right. just have it listen on a non 80 port and adjust your DNS accordingly.
