Hi,

I'm trying to setup a Squid server (Centos 5.5, Squid 2.6-STABLE21,
x64) to help my users to connect to Windows Live (as well as to provide
navigation). They _must_ use Windows Messenger (4.x, 5.x - the ones
shipped by default with Windows XP).
The Windows Messenger app login successfully (if you enter a wrong
username/passw combination it refuses to connect) but cannot complete
the sign in process, displaying (almost indefinitely "Singing in...").
Looking in access.log, I only see:

1288735315.171 6858 172.22.8.202 TCP_MISS/200 8272 CONNECT
login.live.com:443 - DIRECT/65.54.186.17 -

And then (many times, actually!):

1288735321.511 2048 172.22.8.202 TCP_MISS/200 1539 POST
http://64.4.44.76/gateway/gateway.dll? - DIRECT/64.4.44.76
application/x-msn-messenger

I tried using Windows Live Messenger (2009) and it worked perfectly. I
even tried using an ISA Server 2006 with Windows Messenger (5.x) and it
worked as well. I don't have yet any special/tricky ACL, only
"http_access allow all" to avoid confusions.

Does anybody has a similar setup (squid + windows messenger) ? Any help
is appreciated.


Do you have "balance_on_multiple_ip" set to off? It needs to be.

The problems may be this:
 security keys validation sent via CONNECT ... DIRECT/65.54.186.17
 login actually performed via POST to ... DIRECT/64.4.44.76

An edcated guess is that the Live software uses HTTP/1.1 and persistent connections.

Why do you have this strict MUST requirement on using very old versions?
Part of the problem may also be that the Live servers refuse login from old releases with known remote-access security vulnerabilities.
