Hello, Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I am a little out of my element here. Our sysadmin recently left, leaving me in charge of this project. Basically what we need to do is encrypt a message from our client's server (we cannot touch their server though) and get it over the public internet to our data center. [A - client server] ---unencrypted message-->[B - our server at client location] ----send via ssl over the public internet--->[C - our data center] Now, I am a software engineer and pretty unfamiliar with networking. It was suggested to me that I set up a Squid proxy on our server at the client location to handle the encryption and redirection. I am trying to get this to work unencrypted first, so I've set up 3 Ubuntu machines here in the office to simulate the above scenario. I've been able to access a web page hosted on server C from computer A. However, when I try to send a plain text message through a socket I get a response back indicating that the HTTP request is invalid (and the Squid logs show the same error). I am thinking that Squid may not be the right tool for this job...is there any way for squid to handle something like this? If not, does anyone have any suggestions? In a nutshell I need something that can handle 'Take all traffic from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, encrypt it, and send it to yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy:zzzz.' Thanks so much for your help! -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Is-Squid-the-right-tool-for-the-job--tp19786997p19786997.html Sent from the Squid - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
