Topic: ReWriteRules on apache

[velocity]

I am finding a problem using mod_rewrite rules on apache.
Following is the ReWriteRule I am using

RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://127.0.0.1:8080/VirtualHostBase/http/<Server Name>:80/eduCommons/VirtualHostRoot/$1 [P,L]

but if some one is trying to access the site
then he gets a link like this

http://192.168.1.5:8080/eduCommons/acl_users/credentials_cookie_auth/require_login?came_from=http://192.168.1.5:8080/eduCommons/%40%40coursebuilderform

what should I look for?

is mapped to which IP on LAN internally.So that when you forward a request HTTP_HOST it does not start querying
DNS on internet.

The correct format on Server A is
