Re: [squid-users] Squid Redirector and HTTP Accelerator

Your issue is that Squid does not differentiate between http and http
over SSL in accelerator mode, not that you are using a redirector. All
requests received will be processed as if it was requests for http://...
only that the requests received on a https_port will be SSL encrypted.
