Squid-2.5 as reverse proxy terminates the SSL connection. The connecion
Squid->Web server is always HTTP.

With Squid-3 (or the SSL update to 2.5 plus a bit more) it's possible to
tell Squid to initiate an SSL connection to the backend server, but you
should remember that this is independent of the client connection.

If you need full SSL between the client and the web server, as is
required for web servers making use of client-side certificates for
authentication then there is no choice but to publish the web servers
SSL port directly on the Internet. It is not possible to use a
man-in-the-middle such as a reverse proxy in such setups.
