ProxyAuth credentials size limit

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I'm using Squid 2.6.STABLE17 on Redhat & Windows, configured in a chain
of peers with custom auth & external acl helpers that manipulate the
proxyauth credentials/header.  This works fine when the user:passwd
string is less than 256 bytes (prior to base64-encoding), but I noticed
that squid truncates anything larger than that.  I didn't find any
stated header size limit in the RFCs (2616, etc.), and I'm wondering if
this is an arbitrary, static limit imposed by squid?  If at all
possible, I need to increase that limit to 1 KB, and I'm wondering if
this can be done without patching the source.  I didn't see anything
obvious in the config file or the docs.

Thanks for any assistance that you could provide.
