Apache reverse proxy config for pow

zzz_pow.conf

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName pow
  ServerAlias *.dev
  ServerAlias *.xip.io

  ProxyPass / http://localhost:20559/
  ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:20559/
  ProxyPreserveHost On
</VirtualHost>

If you use nginx instead of apache on osx like I do then this will work:

server {
    listen      80;
    server_name pow *.dev *.xip.io;

    charset utf-8; 
    ignore_invalid_headers on;

    location / {
        proxy_set_header  X-Real-IP  $remote_addr;        
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; 
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_pass http://localhost:20559/;        
    }    

}

I know i'm poking in the dark a bit here, but I've set pow and nginx up per Ryan Bates RailsCast #357. Work great, but of course POW hijacks the localHost. I'm using my localhost http://127.0.0.1 for local storage (simulating my S3 store for production). I've done the revere apache changes, now Apache hijacks the POW ports. i'm sure it's something simple since i'm no webserver expert. Any suggestions. Ryan should include your post in his railscast:)

Simply add ServerAlias *.ngrok.com for ngrok support.
