Sorry I couldn't reply early. So in this case, say I want to configure HTTPS proxy from a web-browser directly and not through VPN. In that case there will be no port forwarding involved and hence 443 shouldn't break. To achieve this, what configurations will have to be set in squid.conf file? I am assuming we will have to at least provide a port number by adding 'https_port 3129'. Is there anything else I will have to do? Thanks for your help. -- Regards, Varun _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users
