Re: HTTPS woes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



After two and a bit weeks on this I finally have the Raspberry Pi working as a transparent proxy server utilising Diladele to provide web filtering. I'm going to trial it all for the next few weeks to ensure that it's stable but so far the results have been positive and its working with HTTP and HTTPS across Windows, IOS and Android devices. 

I wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who has responded to my many messages.I'm sure there will be more to come but I wouldn't have got this far without your help so thank you very much. 

FYI the following steps have been necessary:


HTTPS Squid on Raspberry Pi 3:
1. The stretch repositories are required to build squid 3.5 and should be enabled
2. after running apt-get update you should downgrade to openssl v1.0 (from v1.1) to avoid build failures
3. You must disable ecap functionality to avoid build failures, I couldn't get squid 3.5.23 to build with ecap regardless of the version of libecap I used.
4. download the 3.5.23 source from stretch and follow a guide online to configure, make, and install the packages with ssl and ssl_crtd enabled (careful with the flags if you're following a guide for an older version of squid as the syntax changed)
5. follow a guide online to install / configure squid 3.5 - specifically creating the cache folders and setting up ssl_crtd and the ssl cache
6. download the mozilla ca certs bundle (https://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem or google) which are required for HTTPS to work 
7. ensure sslproxy_session_cache_size is disabled (example config below). Squid will not load on boot with this setting enabled.

8. check permissions across your squid installation (specifically cache, ssl_crtd and cerificate cache/locations) to ensure the proxy:proxy account has access
9. be careful of the runtime directories which are used. The default location on Rpi is /squid3 but this approach will move everything in /squid so be sure that you use the right one in your config
10. Ensure you generate your self-signed CA certificate/key with SHA-256 (as a minimum) to avoid cert failures in the browser. 
11. Bear in mind that your CA certificate will need to be installed/trusted on any device that you wish to use HTTPS on the network

My Config:

coredump_dir /var/spool/squid 

# Add any of your own refresh_pattern entries above these. 
refresh_pattern ^ftp:        1440    20%    10080

refresh_pattern .        0    20%    4320 

cache_dir ufs /cache 400 16 256 


----------------

It's worth noting that I could not get udhcpd to start on boot with the Raspberry Pi (which seemed to be the recommended DHCP server online) and had to switch to ISC to get DHCP to work. Bind works fine though and the Diladele filter also installed without a hitch so it's only really DHCP that can trip you up. 

Hope this helps someone

Great!

I am not sure that patch is related to any issues I have talked about.
What "another post" did you find?

Forget about my "OS environment is not compatible" theory (at least for
now). I now see that Squid is failing while trying to _open_ that memory
segment as opposed to failing while _creating_ it.

Did Squid try to create it? Set debug_options to "ALL,3 54,9" and search
for "shm_" and "ssl_session_cache" in cache.log for more clues.
