Can't browse https sites through squid

gubak · 11-19-2009, 12:52 AM

Hi!

I have a gateway server on my small office network. The lan hosts get internet through squid proxy. One of these lan machines get internet from two directions (squid, masquerade), others get internet only through squid.

My problem:

When I browse internet through squid, I can't reach https sites, but when I browse internet with masquerade settings I can reach https sites!

Can somebody tell what to se to enable https through squid?

Have you used any port redirecting rules in iptables?

you should open port 443 through (/etc/squid/squid.conf) and also make entry of 443 port in iptables

Yes I use port redirections. Packets comming from outside world on port 80 and 22 go directly to another machine in my LAN.
