Hi,

I am using Squid as a reverse proxy/SSL gateway. Clients can connect with HTTP 
and HTTPS. All internal connections to the webserver use HTTP. This way the 
proxy acts as a SSL off loader.

Now an application I use, Roundcube webmail, which has the option of 
redirecting to HTTPS when using HTTP. But since all connection to webserver all 
always HTTP the application gets stuck in a loop. Since it will try to redirect 
and the proxy will undo the redirect.

I found out that one way to solve this would be to use the x-forwarded-proto 
field so that the web application can recognize if the client is using SSL or 
not. 

Is there a way to get Squid to send this option (besides x-forwarded-for) to 
the web server? I search on the web but no luck so far.

Thanks in advance,

Peter
