Look at :

http://spipe.sourceforge.net

The idea is to use in your Linux box a patch modified Apache / mod-ssl
server who deciphers all he receives in its 443 port, and if what he obtains
is not HTTP then it forwards the stream of bytes to a selected server. If it
is HTTP, it leaves Apache to manage as usual.
This thing only works for Apache 1.3.X servers, because patches to mod_ssl
hasn´t been updated for a time and Apache 2.0 has a different way of
working, so if you use it,  it´s recommended to get the Apache and mod-ssl
versions given in the URL
( 2.8.16 of mod_ssl with version 1.3.29 of Apache) althought it could work
with others.

Subject: forwarding encrypted ssl data


Hello list. I have ssl capable devices out in the field that need to send
encrypted data to my server in my office. The ssl capable device sends the
encrypted data out to my firewall in the office which in turn forwards the
ssl traffic into my lan to my linux box running openssl. The linux box
running ssl then has to forward the data, un-encrypted, to a Windows
server that knows how to handle and process the data. How can I do this?
Can this be done? Any help or suggestions would be great. I am not sure
how to do this.
