Error when proxying requests through a subdomain
My DNS setup is as follows:
CompanyA (Not on cloudflare)
2023.company-a.com -> proxy.company-b.com (CNAME)
CompanyB (Is on cloudflare)
proxy.company-b.com -> IP
When i turn on the cloudflare proxy for proxy.company-b.com i get the following error:
"ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH"
Our stack is on cloudflare but we have customers who dont want to move their domain to cloudflare. Is there a way to get this to work while having the Cloudflare proxy enabled?
We do have Full (strict) ssl encryption enabled.

Are you using Cloudflare for SaaS?
Im not, using the free tier currently
That error may be because Cloudflare hasn't issued a certificate for 2023.company-a.com
Right, can i issue one for them?
Yes, with Cloudflare for SaaS
Cross-account or external CNAME will require you to sign up to Cloudflare for SaaS (free for the first 100 hostnames) and then create a Custom Hostname for their domain
