Apache without ssl redirect to iis with ssl

Hi all,

I have an IIS with some web sites in diferent ports. I have an Apache
serving webs on port 80, too (with some virtual hosts). Apache is
redirecting al web requests to itself or to the diferent ports served by
IIS. All that works.

Last day I have created and installed a Digital Certificat to IIS to create
an SSL-HTTPS conections from on of the sites served by IIS. It works in
localhost, but not from internet.

I have configured, in different ways, the request in apache to redirect to
the SSL web site in IIS.

Apache is installed in non-ssl version.

Then, my question is: Can I configure Apache to redirect to an ssl-https web
served by IIS? Or I have to install mod_ssl in apache an create the ssl
tunnel in apache an serve the page without ssl in the IIS?

Thanks a lot!!!

Josep Calabuig.

P.D.: Sorry if my english is not enough good.

Thanks Davide, I try to install and configure SSL in my proxy-apache and
uninstall it from IIS. I hope it works. I will post the result.

If I'm not wrong, what you say is than I can use a simple http redirect or a
secure https redirect between proxy (Apache) and internat web server (IIS),
but I need a secure https conection between internet and the proxy, isn't
it?

Thanks very much.

Josep Calabuig.

Hi,

This is an older msg thread:

http://www.issociate.de/board/post/4...proxy_....html

so it seems like you should be able to do this, but I would assume that
you do need mod_ssl on the Apache end, since Apache would need to
negotiate the SSL handshake with IIS.
