Thanks Eliezer, good summary. I've changed the subject to reflect better
the issue. As far I undestand from documention one can bump https only by
interception.
But what about if one Windows user login against an Active Directory, will
the authenticacion work to use the proxy?
I mean, what I'd want is:
- Only users of an Active Directory can use the proxy
- Block certains urls
Is that possible with squid+ufwdbguard?
Or should I use other tools/ways just like you mentioned?
Thanks in advance!
