still not convinced , but i'll try ;) the parameters entered in epadmin create (hostname and port) are written in 10_core.pl where is the magic in changing it later? they are written elsewhere?
The "change it back" part is under "Configuring the repository" The way a reverse-proxy works is thus: 1) Request comes in for host1.example.com 2) Proxy translates the address to services.example.com:12343) Backend server does whatever it needs to do & writes the page (to the proxy server) 4) Proxy server takes the response, and replaces the address line from services.example.com:1234 to host1.example.com (but leaves the content as is)
5) Proxy server returns the data to the client So - why the two-step install?1) When you install the server initially, you need to build it against its native interface, so services.example.com:1234 2) When you use in public, you need all the in-page URLs to refer to the public name (host1.example.com)
