By did not work i mean that web pages are not getting processed.Initial 1-2 requests for a web page are getting through but then it gets stuck. No response and access log shows this ABORT error. Since you said that it has nothing to do with the forward-proxy issue, i have no idea what is happening. i run the same config with squid 3.1.19 and everything works. What info should i provide so you can understand the issue better. -talha On Tue, Apr 24, 2012 at 11:32 AM, Amos Jeffries <squid3@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On 24/04/2012 6:04 p.m., Ahmed Talha Khan wrote: >> >> How would i define it then in a forward proxy mode?
