Apache subdomain (html) directory to external ip addr

Question

Wondering how to redirect subdomain public html directory to external server pu lic html directory? E.g

When user comes to this link: Sub.domain.com/abc

Contents of abc would get displayed from another external server html directory.

Edit:

Os -- ubuntu Environment-- vps

Sub.domain.com/abc ----> server1 Sub.domain.com/efg ----> server1 Sub.domain.com/xyz ----> server2

Do i need to point both server ip addr to same subdomain? Do i need to define subdomain in both servers

In short what i suppose to do:)

it's a subdomain, you can point it how you want it. – Orphans Jan 13 '17 at 07:35 — Orphans, Jan 13 '17 at 07:35

One way is to simply redirect with an .htaccess file, assuming you are using apache:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^sub.domain.com/abc [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://external.org/ [R=301,L]

However, for this question to be more thoroughly answered, please provide more detail, such as OS, server, etc
