Re: [squid-users] Squid SSL accelerator

Please do not send HTML mail to the list. Makes your messages awful hard to
read.

See http://devel.squid-cache.org/ssl/

Short answer: Not yet implemented.

Slightly longer answer:

Squid does not yet implement a SSL client. Only an SSL server is implemented.
HTTP (without SSL) is used in the communication to the accelerated servers.

Note to others: This has nothing to do with proxying of SSL request when
Squid is running as a normal proxy. It is only of relevance to accelerator
setups (which is NOT the same thing as transparent proxying)
