Here is my httpd.conf (put it in ssl.conf for
https://www.myhost.org/mldonkey access)

RewriteEngine       on
ProxyRequests       on

RewriteRule /mldonkey http://localhost:4080/$1 [P,L]
RewriteRule /(submit.*) http://localhost:4080/$1 [P,L]
RewriteRule /(files.*) http://localhost:4080/$1 [P,L]
RewriteRule /(dh.css) http://localhost:4080/$1 [P,L]
RewriteRule /(h.css) http://localhost:4080/$1 [P,L]
RewriteRule /(i.js) http://localhost:4080/$1 [P,L]
RewriteRule /(di.js) http://localhost:4080/$1 [P,L]
RewriteRule /(commands.html) http://localhost:4080/$1 [P,L]
RewriteRule /(noframe.html) http://localhost:4080/$1 [P,L]
RewriteRule /(oneframe.html) http://localhost:4080/$1 [P,L]
ProxyPassReverse /(.*)  http://localhost:4080/$1



I hope it's what you're looking for.








First note : could you prefix *.css, *.html and *.js with mld_ (for
example) to make rewrite rule easier ? (if I have a page named
commands.html in my documentroot I'll go in trouble ;-)
Second note : in the previous version of mldonkey there was http_user
and http_password variables, now they've disappeared and there is no
authentification on the web page load, it's a bit embarassing...
I didn't figure out how to set up web auth on my mldonkey (MLNet
2.04rc3-0: Multi-Network p2p client)


Cordialy,

And thanks for your great work, mldonkey is the ultimate P2P client !
