[users@httpd] How can I do Client-Certificate-Authentication from a reverse proxy to another Apache server?
Hello! Apache expert,
If a Reverse Proxy (RP) talks to another Apache
server(AS), is there a way to do bidirectional
authentication or Client-Cert-Auth between those two
Apache servers? It means, the RP needs to send the
client cert to AS for ssl-handshake. Can we do it?
Many Thanks,
Q.Xie

I've never done it, but it seems like that is what the SSLProxy...
directives are designed to do. See:
