Hi all,

 As Squid's wiki shows: https://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Strange/TorifiedSquid, is it really needed to install privoxy to use squid as a proxy to access .onion domains?

Or some other HTTP<->TOR gateway proxy.


Is not possible to install only squid+tor an put the following:

cache_peer localhost parent 9040 7 no-query default

in squid.conf (9040 port is the port configured as a transportport in torrc)?


Unless something has changed TOR only presents a SOCKS interface which privoxy uses, not an HTTP one. So Squid will need *at least* working SOCKS support on peer connections before the above behaviour can happen.

The current state of SOCKS support in Squid is detailed at <https://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/Socks> that project is still blocked by the testing issues mentioned at the bottom of the page. Mostly due to lack of time availability from myself and some others who showed interest over the years.
