I'm new to squid, and I thought I could use it as a proxy to detect transactions that don't succeed and return a page to the browser that would display an error page that re-submitted the original request (again) say 15 seconds later. (I want to use this to hide network and server failure from end users at a kiosk.) I've figured out how to do most of this for http transactions, but my real target uses https and when I look at the squid logs I see a transaction called CONNECT ... DIRECT ... and these don't seem to go through, or at the very least it seems as though the connections are not proxied, and hence DNS resolution and connection failures aren't captured and don't result in squid error pages returned to the browser. Is this actually possible, and if so... what directives should I be looking at for the config file. Any suggestions and/or comments are welcome. TIA Fulko
