hi all , We have squid proxy installed in our institute and after a freesh installation of squid we are unable to use ssh to connect to outside servers through proxy ,we were able to do it earlier . Now we get a error 403 access forbidden .The same situation for IRC and the admin is ready to help but he hasnt been able to figure out what to do . Can any one tell me a solution /what changes to de done in squid.conf to enable ssh and IRC through squid ?
in order to have that kind of connection, you have to allow the "CONNECT" method to go through squid. check that the "CONNECT" method is allowed ..
