[Mod-security-developers] request fork capability in apache

[D. P. <dhi...@ya...>]

Hello,

We have need to fork requests from our Apache proxyservers while we migrate our infrastructure. We were thinking of using ModSecurity module and adding a capability to forward copy of request to our new url. We do not need to handle response at this time from the forked request.
my question is if it is possible to do that using modsecurity.  If so, where is the good entry for this code change? Or should I be looking at different module or solution which are better for this purpose?thanks

I think this is something for a lua script which can be called easily
from withing ModSecurity.

Unfortunately, the ModSecurity/Lua documentation is not very well
developed, but I am quite sure this will work.
