I wanted to set up a proxy on my home server for use from remote locations to
use as a web proxy (of course) and also to run SSH over. This means that basic
auth is undesirable due to the login being sent in clear text. So, someone
suggested digest auth, and I was happy. But, now I'm finding that PuTTY and
WinSCP do not support digest auth. And consequently, I haven't found any other
SSH clients that support digest. (sigh)
So, I'm back to plan b, and that is to have a secure proxy connection so all
browser-to-server communication is encrypted. Since SSH over proxy might not
be feasible because I don't want to use basic auth, I could use shellinabox if
the proxy link is secure. So the question is, does anyone know if squid 3.5 on
Ubuntu 16.04 supports secure connections? From what I've found it does not,
although nothing has definitively said one way or another. Is there a way to
tell? I've tried configuring for it and it didn't work, but I have little
confidence in my config file for this.
