I'm trying to set Apache as proxy server to an internal SharePoint server.
I have previously configured Apache to run as a proxy server to export internal webpages and web applications.
However, the Sharepoint is using SSL and NTLM authentication, and this is new to me 🙁
I have tried many options, the traffic seems to be forwared as I get the authentication popup window, but when I insert the user/pass, I get back to the same popup window.
Anybody has configured Apache to do so?
Here is a part of my httpd.conf:
<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName repository.out.com
SSLProxyEngine On
RequestHeader set Front-End-Https "On"
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass / https://sharepoint.in.com
ProxyPassReverse / https://sharepoint.in.com
CacheDisable *
SetEnv force-proxy-request-1.0 1
SetEnv proxy-nokeepalive 1
ErrorLog logs/jlanza_log
CustomLog logs/jlanza_log common
</VirtualHost>

NTLM was not designed to work through Proxies (or in your case: reverse-proxies).

However, there are workarounds:
