[users@httpd] Ssl proxy tunnel

[Federico Mennite <fe...@lifeware.ch>]

Hi,

I'have set up an ssl proxy tunnel to some backend http servers.

Relevant configuration parameters:


HostnameLookups Off

Listen 192.168.1.1:443
<VirtualHost 192.168.1.1:443>
   ServerName some.host.com
   SSLEngine On
   SSLCertificateFile    /opt/apache/conf/ssl.crt/my.crt
   SSLCertificateKeyFile /opt/apache/conf/ssl.key/my.key
   ProxyPass        / http://192.168.2.1:80/
   ProxyPassReverse / http://192.168.2.1:80/
</VirtualHost>


It looks like that mod_proxy performs a reverse lookup for 192.168.2.1 
just before forwarding each http request to the internal server.

As a workaround I added the internal host ip number to /etc/hosts.

Can this be prevented with some configuration parameter I'm hopefully 
missing? :)

Regards.
