Hi everyone,
I have a client who is having a problem connecting to a secure banking site online through an HTTPS:// connection. It seems to hang on the user authentication. I've tested connecting through an 5.5 and 6.01.01 SME gateway and both have the same result.
I've been told that port 81 outbound needs to be open. Any suggestions? Do I need to change the outbound rules?
Thanks,
Ralph

Hi,
There are no restrictions on outgoing traffic in SMEs.
Perhaps you should check your proxy parameters.

Hi there,
Thanks for the reply. With regards to Proxy parameters. Did you mean make changes on the SME server or in Internet Explorer?
I found that if I changed my outgoing firewall to a Gnatbox, I don't have a problem connecting so I'm pretty sure it's the SME server doing the blocking.
BTY, I've tested with a Gnatbox (Connected!), SME v. 5.5 (Didn't connect), and SME 6.01.01 (Didn't connect.)

Opening ports on the Squid Proxy Server
mkdir -p /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/squid/squid.conf
cp /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/squid/squid.conf/20ACL15Safe_ports \
/etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/squid/squid.conf/20ACL15Safe_ports
now, edit /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/squid/squid.conf/20ACL15Safe_ports
with whichever text editor you feel comfortable with (vi or pico) and add whatever ports you wish to allow, to the end of the line of text.
Save the changes, then...
/sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/squid/squid.conf
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event console-save
