squid reverse proxy through https, no cache, no public proxy?


Hi, I never tried before to install squid proxy at my Debian, so, I need small help.

is it possible to hide website IP behind squid reverse proxy?

I am not interested to use proxy to access Internet, I don't want to use squid to cache or to make public proxy, than just to hide website IP behind proxy, so, when visitors visit my sites, my sites should be hidden behind proxy.

I have debian + apache, I redirected all website's ports 80 to 443 (https), so, visitors are forced to use https, and now I want to hide websites behind squid proxy, I suppose it should be reverse proxy.

Until now I succeeded only to install squid3, and I tried to change settings in Firefox so i could visit internet through proxy (with authentication, username and password). but that's not what I need, I need all users to see proxy and not my real IP and squid should do it as https. all my sites use the same IP and the same ssl certificate and the same 443 port.

I am not interested for cloudflare and similar corporate CDN who are in theory hiding IP, they spy all users, I don't trust them to record all my users. every big business is collaborating with the government. I hope I can use squid for hiding IP. in the end, even cloudflare is not always hiding IP.

Hi
There are plenty of explanations to configure Squid/Nginx as a reverse proxy. hope you can do simple google search and find the relevant information.

I am bit fan of Nginx for this case
