Thanks, I want to tunnel all the ftp, socks, pop and smtp through my squid. I have a squid which authenticates the users, so, I want all the requests, be it socks, http, ftp, pop, smtp or voice chat or video chat to go through my squid. Is there any way to tunnel all this through my squid. I will run a socks server but that socks server should in turn tunnel it's traffic through my http proxy.
Actually, my user's are complaining that they are not able to use yahoo messenger's voice chat and video chat and that they are not able to use ftp on those sites which requires autentication. Please advise me if I can. what is the best solution for this situation. I cannot go for nat/masq.
