Hello. I've tried your hints by doing the changes of Daemon.pm and use my script but not with desired success. Has anyone perhaps sample-code for proxying client-requests with CONNECT-method to establish ssl and what additional changes have to do? I'll be very glad, if someone can post it here. Best regards, Andreas

my $UA = LWP::UserAgent->new;
                
$UA->agent("Mozilla/4.0");
$UA->protocols_allowed(['http','https']);


my $SRV = HTTP::Daemon->new(LocalPort => 3128);

while (my $conn = $SRV->accept) {
  
    while (my $request = $conn->get_request) {

         my $resp = $UA->simple_request($request);
           $conn->send_response($resp);        
    }
  $conn->close;

}
