Hi people
I'm trying to set up squid as an http and ssl accelerator for WebCT Vista, which is an application running on BEA WebLogic.
I want all connections between squid and weblogic to be plain text, on port 80. User connections will be a combination of SSL (https port 443) and plain http.
Aparently, if I can get squid to add the following header to HTTPS requests, then things will be good:
WL-Proxy-SSL: true
My hope is that this will allow Weblogic to generate https urls when a user is using https, and http when they're using http. This is a non-trivial excercise when you're using squid as an accelerator, so you need some extra header to pass this info on to the backend appserver.
How would I go about achieving this? Is it possible?
Note that I've already written a perl redirector script but AFAIK there's no way to add extra headers with the redirector interface?
Thank you
Jesse
