Thanks, I plugged in your syntax for the RedirectMatch and the proxy now
works great.  The wiki includes:

<name or="" ip="">

in the url example, do you know the purpose of this?  It appears that it is
not needed.

Thanks

Len

Hi Len,

if you are running mapbender 2.4.2 you should not need to update class_*
files.

What you need to change is the target of your redirection:
RedirectMatch ^.*owsproxy.([^i][\w\d]+)\/([\w\d]+)\/?$
http://localhost/owsproxy/http/index.php?sid=$1\&wms=$2\&

In order for the target url to work you also need an alias defined in your
apache configuration Alias /owsproxy/ /var/www/mapbender/owsproxy/  (change
according to your directory structure)

Before using owsproxy please make sure, that everything else is working
properly, i.e. that you are able to access your wms via mapbender without
owsproxy enabled (when owsproxy configuration is done, you need to go to
admin_en_services -> OWSPROXY and check the wms you want to have secured by
owsproxy.

Cheers, Michael
