  * Squid passes the URL whole to the script
  * The redirect script does exactly what you program into it.
  * Squid uses exactly what the script outputs.

Your web browser is requesting:

    http://www.az.com/

http://117.195.4.252/ is a valid URL at the receiving server which is
why the first one works.

If you were to request

   http://www.az.com/some.html

methinks that script will re-write it as:

   http://117.195.4.252//index.html/some.html
