Proxy subdomain root to a different server url

[Vahan Yerkanian]

Hi Chris,

I was missing $1 in the end of the uri so the rewrite works.
Without it, it was being silently ignored and was creating a redirect loop.

For the mailing list archival purposes, here is what I ended up with:

        server {
                listen          11.22.33.44:80;
                server_name     abcd.domain.com;

                location / {
                        rewrite ^(.*)$ /path1/path2/filename$1 break;
                        proxy_pass http://www.domain.com;
                }
                server_tokens   off;
        }


Thanks again,
Vahan
