    # Workaround to have a working reverse-proxy that matches an URL does URL rewriting in Ligghtpd.
    #
    # Ligtthpd 1.4.28 cannot perform both matching and URL rewriting at the same time.
    # Therefore we need to define 2 proxies, one does the matching and bounce the request
    # to the other one, in charge of rewriting the URL before proxying the request to the target server.
    #
    # More about this here:
    # http://redmine.lighttpd.net/issues/164#note-9
