[squid-users] Internet Explorer error with SSL bumping

Thanks for your reply Amos. I will explain a bit more of my setup in the hope it clarifies a few of the issues.

I have installed the certificate portion of squids key/cert into the trusted root store of all the devices concerned all clients see the "server's" certificate as being signed by squid's private key not the origin servers.
I have the following line in squid.conf to specifically stop the use of SSL
    sslproxy_options NO_SSLv2 NO_SSLv3 SINGLE_DH_USE
If I navigate to the internal test site I have just created that has a self signed certificate the self signed cert gets passed through to the client for them to make their own decision

If there is no easy solution I will just avoid IE, which I won't be too upset about.

Thanks,
     Oliver
