In research, I'm reading about people compiling Squid with SOCKS5 support ... would that enable socket-proxying within Squid? Or is there some creative way to generalize/leverage the FTP proxying support (since the control channel on an FTP session is a TCP socket, no?)? If not ... may have to move to ssh tunnels or stunnel or something, for at least these connections -- and there are real disadvantages relative to Squid with doing that. Nuts. -----Original Message----- From: Amos Jeffries [mailto:squid3@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, August 18, 2010 8:30 PM To: squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: EXTERNAL: Re: Microsft WCF net.tcp connections Squidable?

"net.tcp" appears to be what the rest of the world call TCP sockets. So no a socket descriptor cannot be transmitted over HTTP. The SOAP/JASON/AJAX/todays-fad requests sent down it apparently has meta headers formatted as full extensible XML files instead of simple Mime "Foo: data". Amos
