Hi Ernie,

I did not know that Jun-Dir went there.

Have they Internet in Tonga? I never been there!

Thanks,

Yes, they do have internet in Tonga!

Jun-Dir has been helping the Tongan government to do some of their internal systems!

I will suggest them to use LAMS 2.3.5 for Unix, Linux but I do not know if they can do it.

Thanks,

They should be able to do this. But I believe they would need to change some configuration settings mainly.

Not so sure what you mean by reverse proxy. Do they use mod_jk or ...?

Thanks,

No mod_jk

Perhaps they might want to look into mod_jk as well:

What they have is a server (with LAMS) not visible from the internet (let's say in a private 192.168.0.x subnet). There is also an internet facing server. What we wan't to achieve is through reverse proxy (maybe with apache mod_proxy) to expose the LAMS web application to the internet.

Are there are any best practices for such a scenario?

We should also note that there is a moodle web application server as well on the backend server. That one has to be exposed as well and also be integrated with LAMS.

Hi Spyros,

I have not much experience with mod_proxy, but I'm sure it can be done somehow. If you guys manage to do this, please share it here!

Thanks,

Ernie
