Greetings to everyone! This is my first mail to the users list! I am a n00b with squid. I am using squid-2.5.STABLE1-2 on , Redhat 9 with shorewall-3.05 firewall. Till now everything is working fine. On the local network as well as on my firewall machine I am facing a problem in accesing a particular https site which works fine when I don't use any proxy in my browser. I can access other https enabled sites e.g. gmail , yahoo and others. This particular site pop-ups a user name / password login page (same as squid asks for user name and password) and then it redirects me to the https web page on port 2038. I see this error page: The requested URL could not be retrieved While trying to retrieve the URL: mail.relaxofootwear.com:2083 The following error was encountered: * Access Denied. Access control configuration prevents your request from being allowed at this time. Please contact your service provider if you feel this is incorrect.
