Hi all,

Suppose a file named file.pdf stored in the following web location:
http://some_domain/path/to/file.pdf

Where, the *some_domain* is a name-based virtual host.  In this case,
is it possible to set a ddns hostname, say through
http://www.changeip.net/, without using *some_domain* itself,  to
access this file?

DNS can only control what IP address the client connects to. It doesn't have any effect on the "Host:" header that is sent in the HTTP request, and that's what a webserver uses to identify the target site, in a named-based virtual hosting context.

I think you want to use a proxy with URL-rewriting capability. SQUID seems to be capable of this.

Possibly some browser add-on might have a URL-rewriting capability too, haven't looked into that.
