Greetings
Recently I've configurated a site on IIS 5 for HTTPS. This site is
accecible throught the Intranet URL https://192.168.1.5:9090. What I
want is this site to work like a proxy to another machine, where the
data is stored and this second machine does not have IIS. I've
configurated the Home Directory property of the site that I've created
to redirect to the second machine (URL is http://192.168.1.1:8090). By
doing an access to the created site, the browser asks me to confirm the
certificate and tells me that I'm entering a secure area. I confirm and
then the browser alerts me that I'm about to exit the secure area. I
confirm and the URL at the address bar is now http://192.168.1.1:8090.
It seems that wnat is going on is that the first machine
(https://192.168.1.5:9090) simply redirects to the second machine
(http://192.168.1.1:8090). This is not what I want because I loose the
HTTPS connection. What I want is something like a proxy web site, so I
can still have the HTTPS connection. Is there any way to configure IIS
web sites to act like a proxy? If so, how can i configure? Any ideas?
Thanks :)
