Question : Problem: How to direct URL to one or other of two web servers on one LAN
I have a domain which points to my routers IP address and which then is directed to a static IP address on one of the PCs on my LAN which is a web server (actually a webcam).
I have added a second PC as a separate web server on the LAN on a separate static IP address. My routers configuration enables me to direct incoming traffic to a static address, and appears to enable additional addresses in descending order of priority.
Say I want a URL like
www.mydomain.com/webcam
to be directed to my static IP webcam, but
www.mydomain.com/myotherse
rver
to be directed to a separate static IP PC on the LAN. I am not sure how to configure this.
At the moment
www.mydomain.com
is directed to the first-named static IP address in the router configuration, and any other entries are ignored.
Hope I am explaining the problem. Hope you can help.
Answer : Problem: How to direct URL to one or other of two web servers on one LAN
You are going to have to look at using a reverse proxy such as squid to achieve what you are wanting to do.
Squid is relatively easy to set-up to achieve your desired result.
