Archived from groups: microsoft>public>inetserver>iis (more info?)

Hello - I'm sure this has been beaten to death, but please if you would...

We have an internal Exchange server - www.testweb.com/exchange or
mail.testweb.com hosted on an SBS server. We want to add another web page on
another server, SERVER2. Art.testweb.com - which is hosted on an internal
Apache server.

Internally - very easy to do. Our router only allows NAT to the main server,
SERVER1 which is running IIS 6.0.

Can this be done?

I'm aware it can be done by:
Adding another external IP address (we'd have to buy 5 - little expensive)
Moving the Apache site to the IIS 6.0 server (would rather not mess around
with our SBS Server)
Runing the second website on another port - but it would be too confusing to
external users.

If it can't - I understand - just that this is an unusual scenario, and I
just need to know one way or another.

Hi,

A reverse proxy can solve this. ISA Server can do this. I *think* that
ISAPI Rewrite can do this. There may be other commercial products that can
do this, for example OctaGate.

ISAPIRewrite:

OctaGate:
