Don't know if I'm right with my question on this list...
I have a request from a customer to build a secure reverse proxy. The
proxy (placed in the DMZ) should accept SSL connections from the
outside (no problem, mod_ssl). It should then forward the HTTP request
on another secure connection to an application server within the
company network.
Now mod_proxy can obviously not forward https connections. It doesn't
know anything about SSL. And I could not find any information that
such a thing has already been done.
Does anybody know of some work that has been done in this direction?
It seems to be possible with Netscape (see
http://developer.netscape.com/docs/manuals/proxy/adminux/revpxy.htm#1009276). I'm
perfectly willing to write a new module or extend mod_proxy, I just
want to avoid duplicating efforts ;-)
Regards, Joe
