Hi Amos,

Thanks for the reply.  Per your suggestions, I¹ve created a test server
running 2.7.STABLE7 and rebuilt the config (which I¹ll append below).
Unfortunately this doesn¹t change the original issue with file uploads ­
client machine thinks it¹s getting regular proxy stuff due to edited hosts
file and I¹m verifying through logs that it¹s hitting the test server I want
it to use.  Then again, maybe I simply misunderstood you and misconfigured
it again...

Cheers,
Mike

Revised squid.conf (and includes):

# Generic stuff
visible_hostname proxy
http_port 3128
cache_mgr support@domain

# Don't cache ANYTHING
cache_dir null /tmp

# Custom error messages are nice
error_directory /etc/squid/customerrors/amys

# ShoreTel Client Badly Broken:
request_entities on

# Further workarounds for broken ShoreTel:
acl shoretel url_regex CSISISAPI\.dll/\?
http_access allow shoretel
always_direct allow shoretel

# You have to explicitly declare these:
access_log /var/log/squid/access.log squid
pid_filename /var/run/squid.pid

# Let's not take forever to shutdown the server, OK?
shutdown_lifetime 15 seconds

# Even smart people get confused when their web browser fails
# trying to find http://bart
dns_defnames on

# Let's let some stuff pass unhassled:
acl directaccess dstdomain "/etc/squid/direct.squid"
acl unrestricted dstdomain "/etc/squid/unrestricted.squid"
always_direct allow directaccess
http_access allow unrestricted
