Ok, I was able to get it working this morning. Perhaps someone can update the ConfigExample for Chat to include Windows Live Messenger?? Would someone please explain why what I did worked? To be honest I just decided to give it a shot and since I do not understand the ACL's yet I am confused. All I did was add the following ACL: acl msn1 req_mime_type application/x-msn-messenger So I have two ACL's in regard to the mime type (and I question if I need the first one): acl msn1 req_mime_type ^application/x-msn-messenger$ acl msn1 req_mime_type application/x-msn-messenger' Any ideas of why this worked / what I was doing wrong?? -Daniel -----Original Message----- From: Amos Jeffries [mailto:squid3@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, August 03, 2009 7:30 PM To: Daniel Cc: Squid-Users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Squid 3.1.0.12 allowing MSN Messenger - 502 On Mon, 3 Aug 2009 17:09:31 -0400, "Daniel" <Squid@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Ok, I have been banging my head against a few issues so I'll start with > this > one. > > I read on http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Chat where I can make > MSN Messenger work through Squid.

MSN Messenger is not he same as MSN Messenger Live. They are very different programs with very different access needs despite sharing some of the network servers and being able to talk to each other. You can help both yourself and others by tracking down exactly what the program is trying to do. From my own brief brush with Live, I recall it doing some form or HTTPS or SSL encrypted link directly with the servers before it was allowed to have any web contact the proxy could relay. The best bet is to try to isolate the computer running Live and see what connections its making, how and to where.
