[squid-users] SSL Reverse Proxy

Hi everyone,

First time doing this so if I mess it up don’t flame too much ☺

I have an internal web server that needs to be reached from the outside
world.

| Internal web server | <--> | Firewall | <--> | Squid Proxy | <--> |
Firewall | <--> Internet

Between the web server and the proxy it will be standard http but from the
proxy to the internet it will be https. I have purchased a cert for the
domain used and generated all the stuff needed on the squid server for that
using openssl.

I think these are the two relevant lines in my config.

https_port 443 accel cert=/<path to cert>/cert.crt key=/<path to
key>/key.key defaultsite=<website> vhost

cache_peer reports2.federalit.net parent 2002 0 no-query originserver
name=reports.federalit.net

I know 2002 is a funny port but that’s what the windows people have this
site running on.

I also added the line

http_port 80 accel defaultsite=reports.federalit.net vhost

to see if I could get it working over just HTTP but that does the same
thing.

It just sits there and times out very slowly...

Any ideas would be great,

Cheers,
