Hi,
      you are right. With MS stations my access is granted, with others not
I took very different stations to try to solve my problem, i don't find any
clue about my problem.
So, looking at the devel.squid-cache-cache.org/cgi-bin/test url, the results
are the same for any station: the x-forwarded field is everytime correct
whatever i'll be granted accessor not!

I try with different browser. I have these results:
WinXP with IE 6.0.2: ok
the same with Netscape 4.7: not ok
win 98 with Netscape 4.7
the same + IE 4.72: not ok
MacOS 10.2 + IE 5.2 and Netscape 4.5 not ok
MacOS 9xx + Netscape 4.5 and IE 5.01: not ok
Linux suse 8.1 + netscape 7.0 not ok
Everytime i have:
Source address: Ip how my squid proxy
via: name of my proxy + squid version (Squid/2.3.stable4-hno.cvs)
forwarded from: the ip of the workstation

I know it is not supposed to have different results with differents browsers
on the same system, i find it more than weird too

One more precision, with i'm telling "access granted", i mean the foreign
restricted website recognize (i don't know how...) the IP of my workstation
and all go on well.
When access is not granted it gives me the IP of my proxy and telling me an
access denied banner.

these are all the elements in my possession! i have no more new idea to try
to explain how this happens!
