Hi, i need to configure a apache ssl proxy as front-end of another webserver (without ssl) who runs a web application as back-end.

for that I've installed an apache with ssl (for the frontend) and configure the following httpd directives for the proxy server

Listen *:800
NameVirtualHost *:800
<VirtualHost *:800>
ProxyPass /myApp ProxyPassReverse /myApp ...
...
</VirtualHost>

I conect to the webserver by https:\\localhost:800, then I accept the ssl certificate and it works, the apache redirect me to the http:\\localhost:8080\myApp...
but here it´s my problem: in the webclient address bar figure the direction of my background webserver who is listening in the port 8080. It´s not transparent for the client.
So, here it´s my question: how can i do to configure this "tunneling" transparent to the client? any idea?

thanks in advance...Gabriel.
