First thing, thanks for the idea Marcus. For redirecting requests to different sites that would be the solution, unfortunately ICAP is not the solution that will work for my problem. Problem is that level of processing required after getting the request header, interserver communication Squid-ICAP and other problems that would arise from them will put too much new problems on already bug-rich environment work in :-( Plus, involving another server in already request/bandwidth/workload interface I am developing is bound to generate series delays and problems. Another problem is that the my redirector script is the starting point of other programs that not only redirect/rewrite URI but do serious work on the future destination (local Apache server) that the client will be redirected to :-) Only thing that will work for my problem is a system variable, or modification of redirector interface that will deliver the HTTP_GET request header to Perl redirector script. Besides, just like ICAP, Squid gets the request header, it memorizes it in SOME program variable (otherwise it would be impossible for Squid to write it in access.log AFTER it handles the request). Only thing that I need, is for somebody to help me find out: 1. Where is that variable ? 2. How do I get it ? 3. How do I import it to Perl redirector script ? Thanks in advance for all help/guidelines you give me.
