<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName ahsnews.com
    ServerAlias www.ahsnews.com
    ServerAdmin webmaster at ahsnews.com
    ServerSignature on

    CustomLog     "|/usr/sbin/rotatelogs /var/log/apache2/
ahsnews.com/ahsnews.com-access.log 86400" combined
    ErrorLog      "|/usr/sbin/rotatelogs /var/log/apache2/
ahsnews.com/ahsnews.com-error.log 86400"
    LogLevel debug

    RewriteEngine on

    # use RewriteLog to debug problems with your rewrite rules
    # disable it after you found the error our your harddisk will be filled
*very fast*
    RewriteLog "/var/log/apache2/rewrite_log"
    RewriteLogLevel 3

    RewriteRule ^/(.*) \

http://127.0.0.1:8080/VirtualHostBase/http/%{SERVER_NAME}:80/ahs/newspaper/VirtualHostRoot/$1[L,P]

</VirtualHost>

And I still got error 403. I added the stanza:

<Proxy *>
 Order Deny,Allow
 Allow from all
</Proxy>

and I now can get to my plone site. However, doesn't that <Proxy *> make may
server an open proxy for everyone to use?
