Apache reverse proxy

Posted on March 11, 2019

Hi Guys, could you please help me to solve my problem?

I’ve multiple webservers (for private use) behind the firewall and Apache reverse proxy (with VirtualHost) on my private network. Now I added a QNAP NAS with domaine name like nas.myqnapcloud.com with SSL installed on the NAS. I can connect to my NAS from internet when I by-pass the proxy but with proxy I don’t know the correct redirection rule to be added to the VirtualHost file in order to redirect the port 443 to my NAS

Anyone have a idea? Thanks for your help Raph.

Hey friend,

You can add reverse proxy rules to an SSL virtual host in the same way that you add it to a non-SSL virtual host. For your reference as well as that of anyone else reading, you can find instructions for creating a reverse proxy with Apache here:
