Netflix doesn't work through Squid
The only option you have to allow Netflix to work through a proxied
environment without adding exceptions on all your clients, is to put
this code in your configuration file:
acl netflix dstdomain .netflix.com
cache deny netflix
That allows Netflix to fully work through the proxy.
Tested and therefore knows it works on my network.

Hi
I am trying to setup an HTTPS transparent proxy with latest stable
squid with --enable-ssl compiled. Problem is that the squid server
returns an error connection refused, but the thing is that it was
trying to connect to itself. I did also check using tcpdump and
actually no https requests are leaving for the destination site, all
https is happening between the browser and the squid server.

And basically the same happens for other hostnames, however when I do
run nslookup on the squid server the lookup is correct, the
resolv.conf file lists teht Google DNS as the top DNS server.
