I have a IIS web server running php, asp and asp.net on the backend, there are three name based host:

admin.xxx (with SSL)
www.xxx
file.xxx (with SSL)

all on same IP address 192.168.0.1

Now I want to have another server with apache and modsecurity running as a reverse proxy to protect this web server. After browsing through the entire documentation on modsecurity website, I couldn't find a sample configuration for reverse proxy mode.

Could anyone please give me a sample configuration file that is needed for apache to serve as this reverse proxy protection server based on my situation?

Note that I will need the reverse proxy to handle SSL connection as well.
Please help. Our webserver is down recently because of numerous attack and the only cheap solution is to use modsecurity.

There are a lot of examples in this forum how to set up a reverse proxy. I think you have to install mod_security normal. (Others may correct me, if I'm wrong Wink )

If you load proxy_connect_module apache also can handle SSL proxy requests.
