Re: Access Problem to VMWARE, IBM and Truste.com through Squid

Hey,

This is a very old post but I was unable to understand the solution to the issue. I have looked again on the logs and since they show a 500 internal server error response I understood that the issue is not on the server(site) side only and might be on the client(eg other side of the internet and can be either a proxy or a web-browser).

Sometimes websites do not like to handle "special" request which was not meant to be there in the first place.

As an example:
I have seen couple times in the past(before 2013) that a public service was honoring *any* "X-Forwarded-For" headers which resulted in all sort of weird results while displaying the page. One example was that instead of a link to the external web page address I got lots of internal urls which was not suppose to be there at all. On this specific incident I had the chance to see how the "internal" network infrastructure is designed and implemented and which I know nobody planned to show me.

All The Bests,
Eliezer Croitoru

Hi,

First of all Thx Amos for your enlightenment, even if  I had to admit that it's not yet
all clear for me, My knowledge of proxy is very light.

So a little update about my last post.

I told that blocking the access to Truste.com is not a solution, so it's not really true.

Usually I block sites using DBs used by SquidGuard, and here this method does not work (I don't know why).
But, blocking via Squid ACL works, I mean there is no popup anymore and websites are accessible, so it's not a perfect solution but a least is helps.

If you have an Idea of what I could do to solve this better that this patch it would be great.

At least thx for all you have already done.

HErC.
