Hi,
Please info , is a possible CheckPointa configuration this way so that all connections are http to port 80 directed at the inquiry to external proxy, example SQUID ??
Thanks

In older versions (pre NG) you could go "Policy->Global Properties", expand "Firewall", go "Security Server" and add the proxy details in "HTTP next proxy".

Apparently now it's defined on the Check Point gateway object, but I couldn't find it on the GUI not on the documentation, but I bet someone here will quickly get that one.

I find, solution is http_mapped

Found it on the FW object, it's under the Authentication tab, of all things...

"HTTP Security Server" -> "Use Next Proxy"

I found when I do the http mapped setup, I can get to the external proxy but the URL is still a relative URL. Since it does not convert to an Absolute URL it is rejected by the proxy since that is typically how a proxy reacts. Anyone have any ideas how to get the URL's converted to Absolute? I am sure it is something simple that I missed.
