Ok. 
Where do your requests come from? From the outside?
Then you need to update your DNS, so everybody else uses the correct IP
addresses. If you can't do that, you need a name-aware proxy for every
service you want.

Yes. They all come from outside. Will squid work?

Hostname Routing

[Cody Harris]

Hello. I have researched your database on this subject (hostname routing), but 
found nothing much. What i want is to take domain.com:* and deliver that to 
the local machine (127.0.0.1), but i want alt.domain.com:* to go to 
192.0.0.2. How is this done?

	Not in IPTABLES.
	  Use apache.

Re: Hostname Routing

	Apache reverse proxy

From Apache's website .....:
A reverse proxy, by contrast, appears to the client just like an ordinary web 
server. No special configuration on the client is necessary. The client makes 
ordinary requests for content in the name-space of the reverse proxy. The 
reverse proxy then decides where to send those requests, and returns the 
content as if it was itself the origin.

A typical usage of a reverse proxy is to provide Internet users access to a 
server that is behind a firewall. Reverse proxies can also be used to balance 
load among several back-end servers, or to provide caching for a slower 
back-end server. In addition, reverse proxies can be used simply to bring 
several servers into the same URL space.

A reverse proxy is activated using the ProxyPass directive or the [P] flag to 
the RewriteRule directive. It is not necessary to turn ProxyRequests on in 
order to configure a reverse proxy.

Am I missing something?
What about the following in /etc/hosts:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain domain.com
192.0.0.2 alt.domain.com

Or do it on you DNS server.

Cheers,

Ralf
