Thank you guys (Daniel, Lucas, Vic and David) for your answers. I really
appreciate your suggestions.
Let's try to be more specific: we already use MS ISA to do the same job,
but we are trying to move to Open Source at the perimeter (basically for
security reason). That's why I particularly like the Apache approach,
provided it'll safely do the job.
By now, the communications between ISA and the backend servers are https
as well. We'd like to replicate the scenario with the new solution too.
So, Daniel, you are impling that Apache is capable to reverse proxy
https to http only and not https to https, aren't you?
What about Squid and Puond? I have had a quick look on them, but I'm
quite sure they won't work here.
Thanks again. Ciao,
Andrea
