My understanding is that mod_ssl in apache v1.3 patches mod_proxy to enable it to do this: ProxyPass / https://backend.secure.server/ I am not 100% sure though, as I have never needed to use it. Is there a particular reason why you would want to do this? Secure connections to backends can be expensive.
