[pubcookie-users] PubcookieAppID with port?

[Ole Nomann Thomsen]

Hi, any hints as to solve this:

We have a localdirector that acts as a front end for a few servers, 
redirecting https traffic, changing hostname and portnumber.

So https://ldir:444 will let you talk transparently to 
https://hostx:443. But when hostx runs pubcookie, the redirection 
mechanism put you thru the login-server, and then back to 
https://ldir:443 - which is bad.

The apache config file has "ServerName ldir" wich takes care of the 
redirection to ldir. The portnumber however, is from the VirtualHost 
directive.

We tried setting Servername to "ldir:444". This seems to make the 444 
override the 443 in VirtualHost, so Apache listens on 444. Clearly wrong.

What we need, appears to be PubcookieAppID set to "ldir:444". But it 
won't take a portnunber, will it?

What to do, then?

- Thanks, Ole.
