SSL VPN Client and external SSL websites

Hi,

I thought this was working fine at one time, but maybe I imagined it.

So if I am using the the SSL VPN client  and I have "Any" in my local networks list under the SSL remote access tab so that I am routing all VPN clients connections through the VPN (and our firewall) am I to take it that I(as a VPN user) can "not" go to an SSL website?   Because that is what I am seeing now.

I thought I could use HTTP proxy and  be allowed to go to SSL (https) sites as long as I had the HTTPS as an allowed proxy'd service. Without using the proxy I can see why it would possibly not work due to me coming in and going out on the same port.

or do I have something misconfigured?

Any help would be appreciated.

Well ..second time in a row I answered my own question. [:(]

I guess I forgot about my little friend called Masquerade. I was not masquerading the VPN pool network. Doh! Although I am not sure why squid was not proxying my HTTPS request initially. (I now have a HTTPS packet filter rule in place)

Are you by chance using transparent proxy? If so, HTTPS will not be proxied... transparent proxy does port 80 and nothing else.
