mod_rewrite redirect request question

[papayiya]

The following allows me to use mod_rewrite to redirect a given request from www.whatever.com to another server on my network:


<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.whatever.com
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://192.168.1.40$1 [P]
</VirtualHost>


Is here anyway to attach in the rewrite URL the fact that this request is for whatever.com? Cause the way it is now, the second server will not know that this request is for whatever.com.

Thanks,
George
