Topic: Cloaking URL

[Christian NGUYEN]

Hello,

I wonder if there is a way to cloak some URL.
example:

www.test.com:81/prod/index.htm  become www.finalsite.com ????

Thanks for replyng!

PS: I'm working on SME 5.5

There is a way to point www.finalsite.com at www.test.com:81 in the DNS records, but I'm not sure how to do it. I thought it was linked from here a while ago...

I'm not sure about the /prod/index.htm either. Do you want "www.finalsite.com" to stay in the URL bar through the whole site, or do you just want them to see it instaed of "www.test.com:81"?

Hello Christian,

You can place in the subdirectorie "/prod/" a phpscript named "index.php"
whith the follow content

    header('location: http://www.finalsite.com");
  ?>
if this a ibay then enable in server-manager - ibays - Execution of dynamic content (CGI, PHP, SSI)

Of cource you must deleted are rename the orginal index.html

Goodluck

You can use Apache mod_proxy (ProxyPass/ProxyPassReverse) to cloak/proxy websites on other servers.
