    Let's turn the question back at you then.

    Suppose we have two apache web servers that are front ends to two
different systems with "identical" behavior.  These servers, by
nature, have different names; one is "foo", the other is "bar".  Both
are hiding behind a NAT system so that no address of either machine
will reveal that the correct names for generating redirects are "foo"
and "bar".


    Draw a boundary such that apache still generates correct redirects
for http 1.0 without having different configuration files that
expressely mention the correct names on "foo" and "bar".
