But clearly there will be problems with this tunneling, as it goes far beyond what is guaranteed by the HTTP standard. The most serious problem is an assumption that request and response bodies are streams. They are not. And, for example, it is not guaranteed that a proxy will start sending a POST request to the upstream server before it receives the full request body (which is not going to happen). With nginx, this is certainly not going to work by default, but may work with proxy_buffering and proxy_request_buffering disabled, see here: http://nginx.org/r/proxy_buffering http://nginx.org/r/proxy_request_buffering Also, the pdf in question suggests that Content-Length in requests is expected to be ignored by proxies. It is not in the modern world, and if the client relies on this, it is not going to work at all. If it is the case, the only option I can recommend would be to use stream proxy instead, see here: http://nginx.org/en/docs/stream/ngx_stream_core_module.html -- Maxim Dounin http://mdounin.ru/ _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list nginx@nginx.org http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
