Øj,

I wonder … is there an easy way to redirect from "www\.(.+)" to "\1"?
I.e., to avoid the www in the hostname.

Cheers,

I may have understood your question but can you not simply use this:

ListenHTTP
    Address 1.2.3.4
        Port    80

        Service
             HeadRequire "Host: .*server0.com.*"

        BackEnd
              Address 192.168.0.10
                  Port    80
              End
        End
    End
End


Regards
Richard

Øj,

I wonder … is there an easy way to redirect from "www\.(.+)" to "\1"?

Well, yes, but that gives me a different result.  I want to get rid of
the www altogether, so that when people type
http://www.example.com/some/page.html pound redirects them to
http://example.com/some/page.html (preferrably with a 301, but I guess
307 would do also).

Is it possible?

Cheers,
Klaus.

I think the original question had to do with host name rewriting (which 
is not supported in pound).

I do not need host rewriting, just URL redirection.

I would like to be able to do something like this:

#v+

  HeadRequire "Host: www.example.com"
  URL "/(.*)"
  Redirect "http://example.com/\1"

#v-

where "\1" expands to the match of "(.*)" in the URL statement.

Apache's mod_rewrite could do this for you. I don't know what web server 
you are running, but it would be more of a job for your web server than 
pound.

I'm not sure why you think this is more a job for a web server.  I'm
running a heterogenous crowd of backends (zope being one of them) but
apache is not included.  I think pound is an obvious place to do the
redirection since pound can do at least some redirection, and since
pound is the main entry point.

In OpenACS we use an Aolserver registered filter to do this job. However, if 
reverse proxying I would need to set Pound up to route requests for both 
http://www.example.com  and http://example.com to the same backend.

So I guess the answer is that both the reverse proxy and the backend need to 
know. Pound needs to know to route requests for both hosts to the same 
backend, and the backend needs to know to respond to requests for both 
hostnames.

I do not know if pound can rewrite the request for you, but I would have to 
agree that I don't think that that is Pound's job.

Richard
