VPN connection over squid

networkingPROXYsquidvpn

If we setup proxy server with squid, would users be able to use VPN (over squid) to connect to remote servers?

It depends on the VPN. OpenVPN is a SSL VPN and supports proxies as well as my Fortigate SSL VPN. I am not aware of other VPNs, but I think you may assume that SSL VPNs can be proxied.

I do something similar. I do it using two pieces:

$ cat bin/openproxy
#!/bin/bash
ssh -C -o ServerAliveInterval=150 -L 3128:proxy:3128 gateway.company.com

Then in Firefox, I use FoxyProxy to use localhost:3128 as a proxy for machines in *.company.com.

This works for pretty much everything that I need.
