Did it happen by default?
Or is there a configuration that you changed to get polipo to connect to a web server?
Sorry for the late reply and thank you for the follow up. I do not recall making any configuration changes to the polipo package. $ rpm --verify polipo .M...U... /var/run/polipo
# Uncomment this if you want to use a parent proxy: # parentProxy = "squid.example.org:3128" # Uncomment this if you want to use a parent SOCKS proxy: # socksParentProxy = "localhost:9050" # socksProxyType = socks5 I am not aware of the need for polipo to connect to port 80, Although we probably should give it access to connect to 3128 for squid access? (see above config snippet)
Actually since its a web caching proxy it makes sense that it connect to tcp:80 I only tested it with Tor.
