Dear all,
I´m testing a server and try to simulate a server in production. We have a SSL certificate and I have configured the test server with the same servername as it is in production. To access it, I change the hosts file in my laptop to reach the test server.
However, the Java application running in the server tries to access some local web content. I have changed the hosts file and some applications (ping, wget) they get the local IP address. However nslookup and maybe our Java application (I didn´t have the programmer available to debug it) are getting the production server IP.
So, how can I redirect for instance 443 traffic to a specific IP to the local IP address of the local server? I have tried this:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to YYY.YYY.YYY.YYY
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX - IP of production server
YYY.YYY.YYY.YYY - local IP of the test server
Thanks
Miguel
