Hi all,

I want to send the proxy CONNECT over HTTPS connection as our proxy refuses
connection if it sees it in clear text. I observed that libcurl is not
re-using the connection but creates a new one (HTTP - clear text) before it
sending the CONNECT.

An SSL connection *#0* exists to the subject server (used for another
purpose before the proxy CONNECT is used). See the logs at the end. I am
using the easy interface for libcurl. Is it possible to achieve what I am
looking for?

Looking forward to your suggestions.

BR,

O.
