} Hi peeps.
}
} I was just wondering whether the only acceptable port for SSL servers is
} 443? The reason I ask is that with my 1.1.8 cache, I get "Access Denied"
} when trying to connect to:
}
} https://www.point4.com:8883/
}
} Annoyingly, it connects without problems direct from Netscape.

I am amazed that no one has come up with anything other than "me too"'s or
"not me too" comments on this...!

The default config file that ships with squid includes the following:-
        acl SSL_ports port 443 563
        http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports

This means that https will only work to ports 443 or 563 through squid
with the default (or a based on the default) config file.

The moral is check your ACLs.
