Hi,
this is newbie question:
in my university there are a lot of web server (especially
department's and faculty's web server) say for example
www.math.itb.ac.jp, www.physics.itb.ac.jp, etc.

how to define backend servers for *.itb.ac.jp ?

I'm thinking to use if statement url_request for every web server
but it seems too long :-)

thanks !

That is unfortunately the way you have to do it.

I have been thinking of a way to allow dynamic backends, but it is
not on the current plan for version2.

There is currently no other way to do it.
