apache and url help

I am trying to configure apache so that I can have two seperate domain names point to the same server, but get forwarded to other ports on the box.

For example, I want somedomain.company.com to point to 192.168.1.10:8080 and i want another.company.com to point to 192.168.1.10:9000. I was thinking I might be able to accomplish this with a Virtual Host, but i haven't figured out how. I was able to set this up when I only wanted one domain name associated with the server using a mod_rewrite rule. But having two names makes it trickier for me.

Can anyone suggest a good way to handle this?

Your correct on setting up a virtual host, it would look something like this:

Code:

<VirtualHost *:8080>
        ServerName somedomain.company.com
        RewriteEngine     On
        RewriteRule       ^(.*)$        http://192.168.1.10$1  [P]
</VirtualHost>

And just be sure to have that domain listening on the proper port you specify that is being redirected to. It is possible to use port 80 with multiple machines as well for these virtual hosts. If these are public domains, some surfers might be blocked to view sites on ports other than 80, but just a FYI.
