As far as I can device, it should be entirely possible to TCP forward SSL traffic, but it's failing for unknown reasons. My nginx config:
load_module /usr/lib/nginx/modules/ngx_stream_module.so;
user www-data;
worker_processes auto;
pid /run/nginx.pid;
events {
worker_connections 768;
}
stream {
server {
listen 80;
proxy_pass mediapop.co:80;
}
server {
listen 443;
proxy_pass mediapop.co:443;
ssl_preread on;
}
}
Then on the same server I run:
$ curl -v -H "Host: mediapop.co" https://localhost
* Rebuilt URL to: https://localhost/
* Trying 127.0.0.1...
* Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1) port 443 (#0)
* found 148 certificates in /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
* found 592 certificates in /etc/ssl/certs
* ALPN, offering http/1.1
* gnutls_handshake() failed: Handshake failed
* Closing connection 0
curl: (35) gnutls_handshake() failed: Handshake failed
I can curl https://mediapop.co directly. Meanwhile the port 80 forward works fine. I'm on the latest nginx 1.14.0.
