RE: Squid-3 Release Date\Questions

Henrik,

We now have the ability to use (https) --->
(Squidbox)---http--->(Exchange 2000 OWA) BUT we need the ability for our
users to type (http)---->(Squidbox) and get redirected to (https) at the
client automatically so the client can have a secure session.

We have looked at the redirect program code below but it does not work:

#!/usr/local/bin/perl
$|=1;
        while (<>) {
                @X = split;
                $url = $X[0];
                if ($url =~ /^http:\/\/internal\.foo\.com/) {
                        $url =~ s/^http/https/;
                        $url =~ s/internal/secure/;
                        print "302:$url\n";
                } else {
                        print "$url\n";
                }
        }

Any help or suggestions would be useful....

Jimmy A.

Good question. I don't have an answer at the moment. Robert?

Squid-2.5 + SSL update works for https->https proxying of OWA with the
help of a small redirector to clean up the URLs in the reverse proxy,
but
lacks some features required for https->http proxying of OWA.
