[openssl-users] Acessing a proxy with OpenSSL

[Marcos Bontempo]

Thanks for your answer!
Have you got a C example using the CONNECT request to the proxy?In this case I want to avoid NAT.
It helped a lot!Thanks.

        Hello,
        

        
        I'm using this example to make a SSL connection:
          http://fm4dd.com/openssl/sslconnect.htm.
        Now I want to also acess a HTTPS proxy. Is there a way to
          acess a HTTPS proxy with the OpenSSL library?
        

        
        Any tip will be very helpful,
        Thanks.
      
    
    

    See http://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/HTTPS and
    http://tools.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2817.

    

    AFAIK OpenSSL does not provide specific support for SSL via proxy,
    but you can set up a SSL connection using the CONNECT request to the
    proxy.

    

    Using a proxy for SSL connection does not make sense if you want to
    take advantage of a proxy's caching feature, since these CONNECT
    requests cannot be cached. This is by design.

    

    Using a proxy for SSL can be useful if you want to avoid NAT, or
    want to log, or filter, the connection targets.

    

    Hope this helps,

    Ted
