If one could that that, then it would be not be a secure connection? Greg Sweers CEO ACTS360.com P.O.

That's the best way to go for sure. I'm just saying that if the end user is connecting to an external proxy using encrypted traffic through the squid then it makes no difference to that end user. Hence my initial comment about using 443 to bypass internal filtering unless there is https inspection in place. It's a comment trick used particularly in schools it seems. -----Original Message----- From: Kurt Buff [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, 29 September 2010 1:48 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Outbound firewall ports Yes, it does matter. The inspection of traffic in this case is fairly irrelevant. What I'm after is that *only* the squid proxy gets out on port 443. Anything trying to get out on port 443 that doesn't go through the squid proxy is by definition bad, and therefore blocked. I don't have the resources to inspect traffic. That's a hard fact I have to live with. Therefore, I have to rely on endpoint protection, and the idea that only one host is allowed out. You do what you can with what you have.
