RE: [squid-users] squid banned after transparent proxy

What browser are u using to access the website? In a transparent proxy env,
some browser does not send host header if you do not specify proxy settings.
So, based on the IP header (dest IP) field, your squid would think that you
are trying to get the object from it directly. (becos you are forcing the
traffic to squid server)

try specifying a host header inside your get request.

Subject: [squid-users] squid banned after transparent proxy

hi,

I have this strange thing in my squid box, if i redirect (transparent) port
80 to port 3128, i have been banned. From access.log I have

1089231007.555 23 192.168.10.252 TCP_DENIED/400 1510 GET / - NONE/-
text/html

and on the error on my browser, i have

ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved

While trying to retrieve the URL: /

The following error was encountered:
Invalid URL

I can access the web if connect directly to 3128. I have masq this windows
client from iptables on the firewall.

TIA
