Dinner is served! In this particular case I forward only the client's subject DN. # If the certificate environment variable is set, save the value in an environment variable of our own for future reference RewriteCond %{SSL:SSL_CLIENT_S_DN} !="" RewriteRule .* - [E=DN:%{SSL:SSL_CLIENT_S_DN}] # Create a rewrite map with the internal escape method in order to escape the query string RewriteMap escape int:escape # URLescape the DN envir var, append it to the query string and proxy the whole shabang to foo.bar RewriteRule ^/(.*) https://foo.bar/$1?DN=${escape:%{ENV:DN}} [QSA,P] You can probably replace the SSL_CLIENT_S_DN used above by any other variable found in the mod_ssl documentation. -ascs -----Original Message----- From: Jose Serrano Rodenas [mailto:serrano_josrod@xxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, August 03, 2005 7:07 PM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [users@httpd] Can reverse proxy forward digital certificates.
