RE: Differences with Netscape or MSIE

Hi,

        I had a problem accessing secure servers with squid on a MacIntosh
using MS IE 4.5. I tried wath you said for Netscape, changing the name of
the proxy for https, and now it works ! The Navigator considers now, there
are two different proxies and accept https...

Netscape:
n1) Security proxy (https/snews) must be different than the other
proxies, or most versions will send a unencrypted https request to the
proxy if there is a idle proxy connection already opened by the browser
previously used for http. It does not actually need to be a different
proxy, but the setting must be stringwise different than the other
proxies (using upper case and the other in lower case is sufficient).
(you can see this in the access logs. If there is https: requests then
people are bitten by this bug)
