I have several web site set up on one IIS 6 server distinguished by Host Header.
However, I wish to have one of the sites served by a Linux / Apache server on my network. Do I need to use a reverse proxy add-in for IIS, or is there a simple way to tell IIS to pass on all requests to another server?
Source : [](URL Rewrite : The Official Microsoft IIS Site](URL Rewrite : The Official Microsoft IIS Site)
For IIS 7.5, Microsoft provides official modules for this!
URL Rewrite: http://www.iis.net/download/URLRewrite
Reverse proxy: http://www.iis.net/download/ApplicationRequestRouting
In the site settings, you’ll get an “URL Rewrite” icon.
Open it
right click on the “inbound rules list”
Select “Add Rule(s)”
Choose “Reverse proxy”
In this dialog you can enter the hostname + port to forward to. After adding the rule, opening the edit dialog offers more customizations.
