Good morning,

I have been searching high and low for an answer to my question, and a
method of implementing. However I haven't had any luck! Perhaps someone can
help me!

I have installed a reverse proxy using Squid 3.0 STABLE8. My aim is to allow
the use of the SSL certificate on the web server and not on Squid.

Squid, in reverse proxy mode, acts as the web server. If you want a secure connection, Squid needs to be able to negotiate the SSL, which means it has to have a certificate. It should be possible to use the same certificate for both Squid and the web server.

I have an Apache Web sever running on a Windows Server, hence the reason for the
Proxy. The proxy is in the DMZ. The Web Server is configured to use https on
port 443. This works fine internally. However I can't seem to get squid to
allow the https connection. I get a malformed web page.

Is what I am attempting possible? Or will squid only work if the SSL cert in
installed on the squid server?

If what I want to achieve is possible, can someone please point me in the
right direction. So far all attempts have been fruitless!

Thanks in advance,
Thomas

Chris
