Just to follow up, below is my current approach - I found it a bit
surprising that the port number was required to correctly match the
"Host" header.
I ended up not proxying httpd(8), since I still need it to 301
redirect actual port 80 traffic to 443.
And after sthen@ noted that he is using nginx rather than relayd with
unifi, I haven't bothered proxying that service. Google tells me that
it uses websockets, and that relayd(8) doesn't support proxying those
(yet). Maybe someday? :)
Thanks again.
