Hi there I'm starting to use ICAP as an AV content filter, having moved away from using the havp antivirus proxy as a parent proxy Part of the problem with havp was that it stopped being developed years ago and HTTP trickery had moved on in ways that basically it couldn't support - but squid - being the wonderful piece of loved software it is - was keeping up with the times :-) Anyway, now that I'm trialing ICAP, I'm concerned about the same issue. When a web page is requested by a client, what component does what? Does squid do the download, pass the content to ICAP, or does it (like with parent proxies), just tell the ICAP software to do the download itself? You can see where I'm going, the latter would mean "odd" HTTP applications which might work fine through squid might fail if the ICAP software does things differently (btw: "odd" can mean many things: even how dns lookups occur, ipv6 support,etc) Thanks -- Cheers Jason Haar Corporate Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd.
