Hi Amos,

Thanks I really learnt alot from your previous email.

going on..

Funny thing is when I'm getting the URL in the redirect.bash, I'm not
getting an IP. I probed and logged in many fields as described in the
logformat page, and I usually get either the IP or the DNS inside
redirect.bash but not both

Ouch, I now see in the docs that ssl::server_name is suitable for usage
within ssl_bump. So this is the only use case I suppose.

Ok. new try.  The following are common configurations:
"

acl http_sites dstdomain play.google.com mydomain.com
acl https_sites ssl::server_name play.google.com mydomain.com

http_access allow http_sites

sslcrtd_program /lib/squid/ssl_crtd -s /var/lib/ssl_db -M 4MB
http_access deny all

http_port 3127
http_port 3128 intercept
https_port 3129 cert=/etc/squid/ssl/example.com.cert
key=/etc/squid/ssl/example.com.private ssl-bump intercept
generate-host-certificates=on  version=1
options=NO_SSLv2,NO_SSLv3,SINGLE_DH_USE capath=/etc/ssl/certs/

sslproxy_cert_error allow all
sslproxy_flags DONT_VERIFY_PEER

acl step1 at_step SslBump1
acl step2 at_step SslBump2
acl step3 at_step SslBump3

url_rewrite_program /bin/bash -c -l /etc/squid/redirect.bash
url_rewrite_extras "%>a/%>A %<A la=%la:%lp la2=%<a/%<a  la3=%<la:%<lp %un
%>rm myip=%la myport=%lp  ru=%ru ru2=%>ru ru3=%<ru rd=%>rd rd2=%<rd h=%>h
ssl1=%ssl::bump_mode ssl2=%ssl::>sni ssl3=%ssl::>cert_subject
ssl4=%ssl::>cert_issuer  rp1=%rp rp2=%>rp rp3=%<rp h1=%>h h2=%>ha"
logformat squid "%>a/%>A %<A la=%la:%lp la2=%<a/%<a  la3=%<la:%<lp  %un
%>rm myip=%la myport=%lp  ru=%ru ru2=%>ru ru3=%<ru rd=%>rd rd2=%<rd h=%>h
ssl1=%ssl::bump_mode ssl2=%ssl::>sni ssl3=%ssl::>cert_subject
ssl4=%ssl::>cert_issuer  rp1=%rp rp2=%>rp rp3=%<rp h1=%>h h2=%>ha"
url_rewrite_access allow all
"

Using

"ssl_bump splice step1 all
ssl_bump bump step3 all"

Nothing is blocked. And I don't see any urls, nor sni info neither in
access.log nor in my redirect.log.Only IPs.  I'm trying many https sites.

Using
"ssl_bump splice step2 all
ssl_bump bump step3 all"

Same result.

Using
"
ssl_bump peek step1 all
ssl_bump splice step2  all
ssl_bump bump step3 all
"

I can see URLs in the access.log and redirect.log but no IP's. Further I'm
getting the header forgery warning in the logs, and all pages start
loading, but never finish. Maybe this is something related to the nat rules
in the iptables?

For info, I'm using the simplest bash redirector for now. Here's the code
while true;
do
    read input;
    echo "input=${input}"  >>/var/log/squid/redirects.log 2>&1
    old_url=$(echo ${input} | awk '{print $1}')
    echo "${old_url}"
    [[ $? != 0 ]] && exit -1
    continue
done


I'll try squid4 next week, maybe the result will be better

Many thanks and cheers,
Moataz
