i've seen discussion at perl.apache.org/guide about having a
hefty mod_perl server with a lightweight server proxying
the heavy-lifting requests to the mod_perl server (same machine,
different machine).

can this be done with mod_ssl and mod_perl?

internet  firewall mod_ssl   backend mod_perl
--------> [1.2.3.4] --------> [192.168.7.10]
:443      ssl verify -------> apache:80
:80       portforward ------> apache:80

i'm thinking of using port forwarding on 1.2.3.4 to send :80 http
requests directly to the mod_perl server, and have :443 https
requests get verified thru the mod_ssl server which then also get
sent to the mod_perl server at 192.168.7.10 (HTML::Mason needed
to do the work).

can this be done? am i barking up the wrong tree? is there a
right tree to bark up?
