I'm trying to modify the "Host" request header for a URL that is

ProxyPreserveHost On does work, but breaks other parts of the

LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
LoadModule headers_module modules/mod_headers.so
RewriteEngine On
RequestHeader set Host www.somehost.com
RewriteRule /cd4(.*) http://www.backend1:8080/cd4$1 [P]
result between Apache en backend
GET /cd4/survey.htm HTTP/1.1\r\n
Host: www.backend.com:8080\r\n
Is there something that I'm overlooking? (processing order of modules?)
I don't believe Host can be overridden. It is set just before the request.
Why doesn't ProxyPreserveHost work for you? The alternative is to
monkey with name resolution on the reverse proxy so that
www.somehost.com maps to the IP of www.backend1 and then use
www.somehost.com in your RewriteRule.
