Re: [squid-users] LDAP, Squid, and ssl

The request browser->squid cannot be SSL/TLS encrypted due to lack of support
for SSL/TLS encrypted proxies in all known browsers.

Squid-2.5 supports SSL/TLS encryption of the proxy service, but without
support in the browsers it is not of much help.

Encryption Squid -> LDAP server is a matter implementing the needed SSL/TLS
support in squid_ldap_auth. Should be quite trivial to add I think, but I
have not yet looked at doing so as I have not needed it in our products.
