How to use ssl Let's Encrypt with squid
-
Hello,
I have create ssl Let's Encrypt by Acme on pfsense 2.4 and I want use for squid.
But in squid I can't choose SSL Let's Encrypt. Why?
And how to fix this? -
Hope you meant why cannot I use Let's Encrypt certificate to decrypt HTTPS connections in Squid - if so see answer at https://docs.diladele.com/faq/squid/non_root_ca.html
-
do you have any solutions for this problem with squid proxy?

You need to use self generated Root CA to decrypt HTTPS.
It is luckily not possible to use lets encrypt. Imagine for a second it was possible - would you connect to all that WiFi spots in the modern world? Everyone would be able to decrypt your HTTPS without you even knowing.
