    My public domain is [http://www.example.com](http://www.example.com), this
   is a reverse proxy apache. my website sits on 172.10.10.1/wordpress. I want to
   enable the permalinks but i get 404. My questions: 1. should the reverse proxy
   pass be 172.10.10.1/wordpress or 172.10.10.1 2. what should i write as the site
   url and site adress in wp settings? 3. what should be written in the .htaccess
   file for the rewrite?
 * Thanks alot
    Asaf
