I've tried with both 3.0.24 and 3.1.9:
2010/11/14 20:57:24| cache_cf.cc(363) parseOneConfigFile: squid.conf:406 unrecognized: 'disable-pmtu-discovery=off'
optimum-router:/home/landysaccount# /usr/local/squid3/sbin/squid
2010/11/14 20:58:30| cache_cf.cc(363) parseOneConfigFile: squid.conf:406 unrecognized: 'disable_pmtu_discovery=off'
2010/11/14 21:00:38| cache_cf.cc(363) parseOneConfigFile: squid.conf:406 unrecognized: 'disable-pmtu-discovery'
I'm going crazy with this hotmail problem can't get it working again. I had to disable squid and just forward all traffic, even though it works, I need squid running in the middle.
What do you suggest???
Thanks again for your time.
