Let me explain our environment...we were running as http://mail.xyz.com. Our DNS would resolve to IP a.b.c.d and the external firewall will translate this legal IP to private IP - e.f.g.h which was Squid Reverse Proxy (Squid V2.4). The squid revserse proxy was accerlerating exchange server OWA IP - i.j.k.l. There is another firewall between Squid reverse proxy and exchange server/OWA. This firewall allows traffice between these two on port 80. It worked perfectly.
http://mail.xyz.com -->>Firewall-1 NAT -->>Squid Reverse proxy -->>Firewall-2 ---->>>> OWA IP a.b.c.d -------->>> NAT --->>>>>>> IP e.f.g.h ------------->>> Port ----->> IP i.j.k.l Now we want to encrypt the mail.xyz.com. For this I have installed RH-9, Squid V2.5-STABLE4, OpenSSL-0.9.7. The squid.conf has following config - http_port 8080 https_port 443 cert=/usr/local/ssl/cacert.pem key=/usr/local/ssl/privkey.pem acl it_net src e.f.g.0/255.255.255.0 http_access allow it_net 1. From Squid proxy when I say https://i.j.k.l I can acces the mails. 2. But from anywher else including proxy server if I say https://mail.xyz.com or https://a.b.c.d I get error URL: / cannot be retrieved. Why the IP is getting stripped?
