Rodney helped me start the monitor stand today. MIG welding is fun!

Check it out!

Now I need to get another bracket, and find some paint…

I ended up using a MUSTANG MV-TILT1 Wall Bracket, after looking at at least 100000000 different kinds…

mod_proxy for port redirection

Thursday, November 9th, 2006

I set up Ajaxterm and Webmin to redirect through Apache because sometimes all you have is port 80…

Once mod_proxy is installed and enabled, it’s pretty easy:

ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPass /webmin/ http://localhost:10000/
ProxyPassReverse /webmin/ http://localhost:10000/
ProxyPass /ajaxterm/ http://localhost:8022/
ProxyPassReverse /ajaxterm/ http://localhost:8022/                      

So, the links are…

Ajaxterm: http://slice.yooser.org/ajaxterm/

Webmin: http://slice.yooser.org/webmin/

Webmin requires some additional configuration, nicely documented here.

It works pretty good, except Webmin isn’t rewriting the top menus with the ‘/webmin/’ prefix. I might have to get on the mailing list to figure out what is wrong. I tried searching the Sourceforge list archives, but their searches still stink.
