RE: reverse proxy and squid 2.5/2.6

Hi,

How will this affect say outlook web access (or any other authentication)?
Does it mean that users will not be able to authenticate to the backend
server properly?

Thanks
Paolo

Yes, with 2.6. Very easy. But keep in mind that it terminates the SSL and
then opens a new SSL connection so the certificate seen by the client is the
certificate installed in Squid, and you can't use client certificates
authenticating to the backend web server.

2.5 requires some patching to make SSL backend servers work, and even then
it's a bit messy..
