Ok, I got namevirtualhost working on 443. I also made a new VirtualHost as you 
instructed above. In fact, https://apps.domain.tld does make it to the other 
server, 192.168.123.7. Now the problem is the proxied url does not complete, it 
stops at https://apps.domain.tld/sub/sub. it should be 
https://apps.domain.tld/sub/sub/sub/login page. How do I get the full uri to 
return?
