Pound newbie / HTTPS url issue.

Hello -

After going through much of the archives for SSL i was finally able to get
something to work, I think :)

Howerver i'm a bit confused as to how it's supposed to work.

Here's what i see happening and what i think is happening:

I type https://myserver.to.pound/subdir,
pound forwards the request ---> http://my.backend.servers/subdir.

However the url changes in my web browser to - http://myserver.to.pound/subdir. 
Shouldn't everything be returned back to me as HTTPS?

I'm sure i have something really screwed up so I provided my config.  I could
use any and all help, thanks again.


--------------------------
Here's my config:

## Minimal pound.cfg

## Global Op

User    "www-data"
Group   "www-data"
#RootJail       "/chroot/pound"

## Logging Level
##      0       no logging
##      1       normal
##      2       extended
##      3       Apache-style
LogLevel 1

## Check backend every x secs:
Alive   2

## User hardware Acceleration
## SSLEngine    "<hw>"

ListenHTTPS
   Address 192.168.0.10
   Port    443
   Cert    "/etc/ssl/server.pem"
   Service
      BackEnd
        Address 192.168.0.100
        Port 80
      End
      BackEnd
        Address 192.168.0.200
        Port 80
      End
   End
End

Why dont you use redirect on pound under listen http and point it to HTTPS.
ListenHTTP
         Address 192.168.0.10
         Port    80
         Service
         Redirect "https://myserver.to.pound/subdir"
         End
End
