Some mod_proxy magic should solve it
(http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_proxy.html).  Something
like:

ProxyPass / http://192.168.1.10/MIS
ProxyPassReverse / http://192.168.1.10/MIS

would do it, I'd have thought.  Just make sure actual proxying is
turned off ( ProxyRequests Off).  You could also use mod_rewrite as
well if you needed something a bit more complex.
