That's what I was looking for, and it works well for me. Thanks!
Now for the application I will be using it, I will have to hack it up
a bit. The requirements are that the proxy uses different (client)
certificates towards the back end server depending on several
parameters (where is the request coming from, etc.). Looking at the
code, I think it doesn't have that capability yet.
Who is maintaining this part? I'd like to discuss so that I maybe can
do my things in a way that might be useful for others, too?
