Hi Henrik,

Many thanks for your advise, it works. But, another problem here, the
domino web server is link to the domino mail server, the session at client
browser remain as https after I login (this is good), but, it switch to
http while I try to create new memo/reply mail/forward mail... This is
mainly that the domino web server and mail server has turn off ssl?

client ----------> reverse proxy ------------> domino web server
         https http
      <---------- <------------
         https http

Correct me if I'm wrong, my understanding is, although squid talk in http
with webserver, but will then reply to client using https (as above
diagram), right?

Can advise on what can I configure to resolve the switching between https
and http problem?

Best Regards,
Angie Ng

The httpd_accel_host directive may be a culpit here. It changes the URL
to be http://webserver.domain.com/...

A better approach is to add the serviced host name (the one your clients
are to request) to DNS with the IP of your reverse proxy, and to
/etc/hosts with the IP of the real server. Then set httpd_accel_host to
this name.
