Hi,
I'm trying to assist another dept. at my work, to provide a reverse-proxy
service with our apache based mod_perl application. This other dept. wanted to
leverage our custom PerlAuthenHandler for security reasons, yet they desire
just a pass-thru proxy request to their application tier on behalf of the
client. Since the authentication phase happens after the header parsing/URI
translation phase (where mod_proxy is executed I believe), is there a way to
invoke mod_proxy functionalty after the authentaction phase? Perhaps in the
content/response phase?
I currently have a homegrown, LWP based solution that is almost working from
the response phase, but it would be much better (and faster) if I could take
care of this prior to getting to the response phase.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
