Ok. > how should i enable it..., when I am ready with HTTP-SSL server as > origin server. To proxy https Squid needs to terminate the SSL. This is what https_port does. The http request is also fed as an https:// URL to the Squid proxy engine. The backend web server do not need to run https, but it helps in certain configurations (but costs more CPU). The ssl option to cache_peer directive tells Squid to use https to the backend web server. To select wich cache_peer a request is sent to use cache_peer_access. This can use acls based on pretty much anything, including if it's http or https.. To define multipe cache_peer to the same host but different ports use the name= option. Regards Henrik
