Allowing Skype through Squid proxy
- by Blue Gene
I have a squid proxy running on 192.168.1.2 on port 3000.
with Squid i am able to connect to internet and browse websites but skype is not connecting even after i specified proxy server in it.
In the skype configuration i mentioned it to use SOCKS5 through host 192.168.1.2 and port 3000.
But still its not working.Port 443 is open in squid configuration.
https is working ok as i can access gmail and bank payment sites,but skype can not access its server.
acl Safe_ports port 443 # https
acl SSL_ports port 443
also tried setting
acl numeric_IPs dstdom_regex ^(([0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+)|(\[([0-9af]+)?:([0-9af:]+)?:([0-9af]+)?\])):443
acl Skype_UA browser ^skype
http_access allow CONNECT numeric_IPS Skype_UA
