Hello all! I just got my home netwrok back up and online (other pc had a blow vid card and I was to lasy to get another for a few months) enough of the small chat ;) now to the reason why I post. I am haveing problems conntecting to https sites from my win98 box that is connected to the linux box. I can connect to all normal www sites but when I connect to a https site the little nutscrape indicator goes and goes like the energizer bunny and then comes back and says connection closed... I have ipforwarding etc.. working well (hence my ability to browse normal sites and get email from my 98 box) I even have ip masq going as well. All seems to work except the https problem Any help out thier? Thanks in advance Ron
