[users@httpd] questions regarding the version 2.2.15

Hi,

I am looking for an HTTP proxy server with the following features:
- It has to be a reverse proxy;
- It has to support SSL certificates for encryption and a two-way
authentication: it should received HTTPS requests and be able to decrypt them as
well as encrypt them based on another SSL keys.

The use case is as follow:
- It receives HTTPS requests from a non-trusted zone and authenticates the
remote party based on the server certificate he owns;
- It forward requests to a zone that does not trust it
and for which it owns a SLL client certificate. 

I was thinking of the Apache HTTP Server version 2.2.15. What do you think?
Does this version include the modules mod_ssl and mod_proxy?
 
Thanks and regards,
 
Hélène

I think is the correct version you are looking for.

Hi,

Apache does all that and much more ... all inclusive :)
Suggested readings :
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/ssl/
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ssl.html
in particular : http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ssl.html#sslproxymachinecertificatefile
if I understood your case correctly.

Regards.

Emmanuel
