If you're sending back a 301 then of course it's going to change the URL, that's a redirect. Why do you care what the URL says?? It's WRONG to want to preserve this. You do have options to proxy the service through the actual server, using a ProxyPass directive, but that will mean bouncing all the traffic through the first box forever more, which is probably, hopefully, unacceptable.
Why is it WRONG to want to preserve this when it's possible to be done?
Why do you care what the URL says? : Perhaps it's presentational and marketing/management it want the redirect to look the same as the destination.
I am not looking to use mod_proxy for a reverse proxy, I have been requested to make a URL look the same it can be done I am having problems getting this setup.
I did help you. You're already aware of the iframe solution, the other way is, as I said, to proxy it. You really need to understand what the technology is behind these things though, they both have significant faults, and it's rarely responsible to whitewash over security and technical issues in the name of marketing. The proper solution is to move content, update DNS, host the service in the right location in the first instance.
