Apache2 reverse proxies implementation

Hi all,

I hope someone here could shine a light on an issue that I am having with apache2.

I have 2 servers with apache2 on each, which are on the same network with one router.

I have implemented what I have seen on guides on the net on the landing server such as 'Apache2 reverse proxies' which is on the ubuntuguide site (cant post the url, have not reached 5 posts yet).

It works to a point as when I enter in the url of the server which is the backend server to be served, the url changes to 'https://mail.example.com/wordpress/' and not to the landing server as before, though the result is not the address expected and which I entered from the guide above.

I suspect that there was some mail program installed which is having a conflict, I had zimbra installed at one stage.

I would really appreciate if someone here who has a simliar setup would be so kind to offer some guidance, and finally, this is a great site.

Thanking you in advance,
Regards

James

A2ENSITE(8)						      System Manager's Manual						       A2ENSITE(8)

NAME

       a2ensite, a2dissite - enable or disable an apache2 site / virtual host

SYNOPSIS

       a2ensite [site]

       a2dissite [site]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the a2ensite and a2dissite commands.

       a2ensite is a script that enables the specified site (which contains a <VirtualHost> block) within the apache2 configuration.  It does this
       by creating symlinks within /etc/apache2/sites-enabled.	Likewise, a2dissite disables a site by removing those  symlinks.   It  is  not	an
       error to enable a site which is already enabled, or to disable one which is already disabled.

       The default site is handled specially: The resulting symlink will be called 000-default in order to be loaded first.

EXAMPLES

	      a2dissite default

       Disables the default site.

FILES

       /etc/apache2/sites-available
	      Directory with files giving information on available sites.

       /etc/apache2/sites-enabled
	      Directory with links to the files in sites-available for enabled sites.

SEE ALSO

       apache2ctl(8).
