/directory "redirect" to different real server

Greetings,

I have been using UM 2.x (with RHEL3.x and Apache 2.x) for some time so
I'm somewhat familiar with its basic configuration and functionality.  I
was posed a question today, that I believe to *not* be possible.  So,
I'm hoping someone can confirm my "this can't be done" thoughts or tell
me I'm crazy and point me to instructions on how this can be attained.

We currently have 2 directors and 2 web servers that serve pages for
http://www.toplevel.domain.  

Is it at all possible to "redirect" http://www.toplevel.domain/dir1 to
otherserver.toplevel.domain whilst:

 1) all other requests for http://www.toplevel.domain EXCEPT /dir1 are
served by the two existing webfarm servers

AND

 2) keep the http://www.toplevel.domain/dir1 URL intact, even though
it's served up from a 5th server (ie:
http://otherserver.toplevel.domain/dir1)

Thanks in advance!

ps: If UM is unable to do this, does anyone have any thoughts on
something (hardware appliance or software) that will?
