CherryPy/Turbogears on server not controlled by me

[Jeff McNeil]

Can you use mod_rewrite and include a proxy back to a different port?  
Assuming mod_proxy has been enabled, run your app server on port 8080  
and then do something like this in a .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://localhost:8080/$1 [P]

This of course assumes you want to proxy *all* traffic back.  I  
believe the [P] flag is fully supported in a per-directory  
configuration context.
