Description:

Now I have set a openfire as xmpp server, and use apache do a proxy pass  
to enable http-bind  
httpd.conf:  
ProxyRequests On  
ProxyPass /http-bind/ [http://host:7070/http-bind/](http://host:7070/http-bind/) (this is the openfire  
address)  
ProxyPassReverse /http-bind/ [http://host:7070/http-bind/](http://host:7070/http-bind/)

When using under apache, it works.

But Now I using rails with port 3000, so my question is can rails do the  
same thing as apache, can proxypass a action to a url?

I have try the Net::HTTP.proxy but can’t make it work.

Any help is appreciate!
