Hi Francis Daly,
client -> reverse proxy: https://myreverseproxy.com/https://mypub/somepath
reverse proxy to forward proxy: I'm not sure how https://forwardproxy.com/
https://mypub/somepath https://myreverseproxy.com/https://mypub/somepath
I was trying to append the actual url into the reverse proxy so in its
config we can easily user $request_uri and pass it along and may be
thinking that is what you meant by "http through proxy" and forward proxy
will be able to interpret and do needful. like you said some forward proxy
will be able to do it and if so then above looks good to me.
