Quoting Amos Jeffries <squid3@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>:
This sounds remarkably similar to the MSN (or was is windows xp update? or both?) problem seen earlier. That turned out to be an out-of-band ssl link being made directly to the remote server, bypassing the proxy killed it and the core proxied link was denied thereafter by the remote server. Amos
I dont remember that thread. Although, apple tech support says their updates all run on port 80. Ive never had any problems with Windows updates. Plus, My os x 10.3 computers update through my proxy just fine. Apple says that OS X 10.3 and 10.4 connect to the same server, just use different methods of downloading the updates. Evidently 10.4 downloads a catalog then lists the updates. Not sure what 10.3 does. Apple says that the catalog download isnt finishing.
