Thanks Nick, I am writing a module that have similar proxy functionality as mod_proxy_connect: proxying traffic from client nodes to internal nodes those speaking their unknown binary protocol.
The difference that I use the bucket/brigades IO to be able to use the filter infrastructure. Mainly because of mod_ssl, letting Apache doing the SSL enc/decryption. My main concern was whether there already is a module that does this thing. But my research gave no useful results. Proxy modules either work at socket level (connect) or handle their own protocol only (like ajp). Have you heard a module that would do similar things what I described?
