Amos,
on "defaultsite=X tells Squid to assume the domain X was wanted when
broken clients fail to send a Host: header properly."
is "domain=FQDN" or just the domain name(viz. not host.domain.com, nor
cname.domain.com) - e.g. FQDN=www.domain.com, where as
domainname=domain.com without the host/cname prefix.
"words" themselves are ambiguous.... I appreciate your insight.
The situation is slightly ambiguous also. It depends on what your DNS
requirements are.
From the official docs:
"
defaultsite=domainname
What to use for the Host: header if it is not present
in a request. Determines what site (not origin server)
accelerators should consider the default.
Implies accel.
"
What the Host: header should contain depends entirely on whether you are
virtual hosting or not.
All we can say is its a domain. _should_ be a FQDN, but _may_ be
anything the squid box can resolve.

Amos,
Yes "did seen these". My specific question, results from the fact
that the information provided for "defaultsite=mysite.domain.com" (not
origin server) -> is ambiguous.
When one is configuring a reverse proxy server, it's usually, because
one wants to have the reverse proxy server "appear as the origin
server".
Aha, hopefully my new additions there will reduce that ambiguity a little.

Dist,
Squid 2.7.Stable6
I'm setting up a reverse proxy, such that the Squid system will be
viewed as the "originserver" to the clients contacting it.
Does the "defaultsite=" attribute get the name of the "actual web
server" or the proxy server?
defaultsite= is the public domain name visitors are expected to visit.
It's used to fix broken HTTP Host: headers some clients still send.
In a virtual-host site broken clients will be passed to that domain.
seen these?
