I'm setting up a reverse proxy. We don't have a domain name for our Linux LAMP server. I want the reverse proxy to host multiple servers behind it and be able to reach each one using the same ip address. I would like to use a naming scheme similar to the following: 192.168.0.1/example and 192.168.0.1/example2
Not sure how to go about doing this. Any help would be great!
Total noob here. Have been playing with this for a while!

To explain it a bit more the way it works is this.
You have an IP, lets call it 1.1.1.1 associated with your main apache server, you then have several other servers/sites on internal ips, say 2.2.2.2 and 3.3.3.3 for another one.
You setup your site so that you can request them as such:
1.1.1.1/site2
1.1.1.1/site3
You will then go into your apache configuration file, traditionally httpd.conf, and enable a 'ProxyPass' to get those to the right location.
Now your main Apache server sees an incoming request for 1.1.1.1/site2, it reads it's configuration file and sees that any request on /site2 should be forwarded, or proxied, to http://2.2.2.2.
