[opencms-dev] mod_proxy setup problems

Well, All *was* working and I could get to the login page for the workplace
and log in, now I have a new problem.  Once I finally had my errors fixed
from the install using mod_proxy to rewrite I added the static export
functionality.  I can still get to the workplace page and login and see
sites, but when I click logout in the upper right it logs me out and it
tries to dump me back to the main page it tries to take me to
"http://${domain_name}"
which obviously errors out:
#Server not found
#Firefox can't find the server at ${domain_name}.

I did a blanket recursive grep on anything with ${domain_name} on the entire
tomcathome and apache home dirs and found nothing.  Is this ${domain thing
being auto-generated by the jsp?

I am the guardian standing at the gates and evil shall not pass, it will not
cast it shadow on me and mine, and I will not fear it.
