Varnish pipe through for SSL requests

[Stephen Wood]

I'm not familiar with mod_proxy, but the point being is that traffic being
received by varnish must be plain http traffic. Any SSL encryption
*must*be terminated before it reaches the port Varnish is running.

The are many different ways to do this and mod_proxy and apache might be
one as long as you fulfill the above requirement and Varnish is receiving
only http traffic. I find that the easiest solution is to do SSL
termination on your load balancer.
