[Geoserver-users] question on apache proxy config

I'm trying to setup Apache to proxy requests to so that we can access
geoserver through a friendly URL.
So far I have been able to configure it so geoserver is available via:
http://geoserver.mtri.org/geoserver/
but I have been unable to figure out how to make geoserver available with
http://geoserver.mtri.org/

I've tried a variety of apache config options, but either the links on the
geoserver UI pages or the openlayers demo pages fail to work.

------------------ working code (http://geoserver.mtri.org/geoserver)
------------------

Apache config...

<VirtualHost *>
        ServerName geoserver.mtri.org
        ServerAlias geoserver
        ProxyRequests Off
        <Proxy *>
                Order deny,allow
                Allow from all
        </Proxy>
        ProxyPass / http://servername:8085/
        ProxyPassReverse / http://servername:8085/
        ...

And I've configured the ProxyBaseURL for geoserver in the services.xml file
<ProxyBaseUrl>http://geoserver.mtri.org/&lt;/ProxyBaseUrl&gt;

with this setup I can access geoserver through the following URL...
http://geoserver.mtri.org/geoserver/welcome.do

------------------ non-working code (http://geoserver.mtri.org)
------------------
<VirtualHost *>
        ServerName geoserver.mtri.org
        ServerAlias geoserver
        ProxyRequests Off
        <Proxy *>
                Order deny,allow
                Allow from all
        </Proxy>
        ProxyPass / http://servername:8085/geoserver/
        ProxyPassReverse / http://servername:8085/geoserver/
        ...

And I've configured the ProxyBaseURL for geoserver in the services.xml file
<ProxyBaseUrl>http://geoserver.mtri.org/&lt;/ProxyBaseUrl&gt;

I can access geoserver through the following URL
http://geoserver.mtri.org/welcome.do

but now all the links within the geoserver interface point to bad URLs. For
example, when I click on the demo link, I get an error...

HTTP ERROR: 404
Invalid path was requested
RequestURI=/geoserver/geoserver/demo.do

-----------------------------------------

Any suggestions on how to correctly config apache so that the base URL
http://geoserver.mtri.org works without needing to include /geoserver/ ?
