|
|
Whilst I have used Abyss for nearly two years now, all it has done is host 6 sites in a simple configuration. Now I want to set-up something else and I don't know if it can work this way.
Background
1 PC running Abyss with 6 hosted sites. All HTTP requests directed by router to this PC.
1 PC running Windows Home Server. This allows me to log-on to the network and various PCs within it and it's own simple website. It really should have HTTP and HTTPS directed to it. I have only directed HTTPS to it due to web-server setup.
Requirement
To be able to connect to WHS PC using HTTP.
Possible Solutions
I could install another simple PC as a reverse proxy server. Bit OTT I feel.
So could I set-up Abyss to redirect calls to the URL xxx.homeserver.com to the WHS PC? If so then how would I do it?
Any guidence would be appreciated.

The only way to do this that I know of is to run WHS on another port. Keep Abyss on port 80 for the six websites and run WHS on, say, port 100.
As for https, it has a default port of 443. So you'd set up port 100 and 443 to go to the WHS while port 80 is still directed to the Abyss PC. _________________ Stephen

dancingbear,
Did you come up with a solution for this? I have a WHS too and have a similar situation. Thanks. |
