lighttpd forum migration > Apache mod_rewrite [P] (proxy) to lighttpd

Hello.

In my Apache configuration, I've got the following:

  RewriteRule ^/photos(.*) http://10.10.109.44:48443$1 [P]

What this does is, that any request to http://host.example/photos is
internally fetched by apache from http://10.10.109.44:48443. This way,
I don't have to directly expose the web server on 
http://10.10.109.44:48443
to the internet. And, additionally, I can have two web servers running
(Apache on port 80 and that other server on Port 48443) and users only
access port 80.

Can I somehow translate that configuration to lighttpd?

Thanks,
Alex

I too would like to know how to do this in lighttpd.
