Redirect to other domain but keep typed domain

Question

After looking on the internet for about an hour, I didn't find the answer to my question. So I'm searching with the wrong keywords or what I want is not possible. What I want: I have multiple domains with different extensions, for example: - mydomain.be - mydomain.nl Now what I want is that the mydomain.be is redirected to mydomain.nl. The solution for this I have found on the internet and shown below, with the need of .htaccess: ``` RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain.be$ [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.mydomain.be$ RewriteRule (.*)$ http://www.mydomain.nl/$1 [R=301,L] ``` With this code, when you type mydomain.be you will be redirect to mydomain.nl. But also the URL in the addressbar is changed to mydomain.nl. What I want is to keep the URL in the addressbar mydomain.be. So, mydomain.be: - keep URL - show content of mydomain.nl How To?

Accepted Answer

It is possible to get it done via mod_rewrite but make sure mod_proxy is enabled in your Apache's httpd.conf. Once that is done enable mod_rewrite and .htaccess through `httpd.conf` and then put this code in your `.htaccess` under `DOCUMENT_ROOT` directory:

```
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?mydomain\.be$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://www.mydomain.nl%{REQUEST_URI} [L,NE,P]
```

Take note of flag `P` which is used for handling the proxy request.
