On the very first request, the browser receives a "407 Proxy Authentication Required" reply and learns that it is expected to provide credentials. For a certain amount of time, the browser knows that it should send the credentials with every request without waiting for an 407 reply. How long is this amount of time? Is it like forever? Is there ever a limit after which the browser will try again to send a request without credentials? Maybe after a browser restart or what? - -- Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN sip:sudakov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJUZvPIAAoJEA2k8lmbXsY0qn8IAIoxZnizrSzrx6mozpqDo64n zjwuYNPO7RmEcXWJx8/YBYH1/dPMJ+ya5oHq588jOij0zOmxKu2NcA7h7RvBGRxt 2L9CJWLG+9iQrndoPZwghG5/f3AhTz8sq9QuOUB2Cw2+DCFi2VWYTFhlcvK9INsl AngytS3e8xlrdnQ9S8VGA5bayG7Qt3eoVorSc0GJ+tb+fHM5rs1TfdJExr4ALLeX UQkOuIKFlyzcS4wfRIcmjHxW3Fce7+E8tZQnoyic8ZFOf5GZspBRi1BLRJ31cDuJ k/VB7erdd8VhDrydB2p0IJsaeE9hNGyH1vgecBU39wAZg4uU1HzQL3ThC/CAWAA= =APpH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users
