[squid-users] Squid Reverse Proxy and SSL

So I should be trying squid 3 instead of 2.5?

An example config file would be nice, as I dont know how to ad the
"Front-End-Https: yes" header part.

Thanks for the help tho.

You need to make Squid add the "Front-End-Https: yes" header when acting
as a SSL frontend to OWA. This is a OWA specific header, telling OWA that
there is an SSL gateway infront of it.

Yes, but with a quite different Squid (in these aspects more resembling
Squid-3.0 than 2.5).
