Hi list,
I am using a squid proxy to route http traffic through a separate
router on my network. I am getting some traffic in my
/var/log/squid/cache.log file:
2007/12/13 13:46:54| urlParse: Illegal character in hostname
'www.hostname1.com?404=y'
2007/12/13 14:01:44| urlParse: Illegal character in hostname
'www.hostname2.com?404=y'
2007/12/13 14:08:18| urlParse: Illegal character in hostname
'hostname3.com?404=y'
2007/12/13 14:13:37| urlParse: Illegal character in hostname
'hostname.com?404=y'
I'm looking at the source of these URLs when this happens and the
URL is not malformed.
What I really want, though, is to turn off any kind of URL checking
like this. I just want squid to pass any HTTP requests through
unchecked and unaltered if possible. I also want to turn off all
URL logging and caching.
Can someone suggest how to do this in the squid config?
Please indicate which version of squid you are using.
This is a sign of a serious error somewhere. "?404=y" is not valid in
a domain name.
Also, if there are better suggestions (other than squid, that is) I
would be glad to consider them.
Just routing? maybe configuring the router to do its job would be the thing.
I don't want to loose you from the squid family but it would certainly
be a lot less trouble and faster to route at the packet level.
