[squid-users] Squid server as transparent proxy and problem with Rapid Share
Hi, We are running ISP and have few cache+proxy servers running Squid as transparent. Lots of our clients have been using site like rapidshare from where they download files/program without having an account. But problem is that when a user trying to download off rapidshare it says his/her IP address (Squid server IP) already downloading a file and to wait until it is finished or ask to come back after 30 mins. How can we overcome this problem? How can we bypass totally rapidshare so rapidshare server can see the clients IP as his/her own public IP not squid server's IP address? Can any body help?

[squid-users] Nameservers are operational but Squid cannot resolve
A few days ago, Squid was working perfectly fine. I have neither made changes to Squid nor any changes to system configuration files. In fact, I have not even logged into the server since the problems arose. Today, I am unable to visit websites while surfing through Squid. When my web browser is configured to use the Squid proxy, I get the username and password prompt as I should (I use ncsa_auth). However, I then get the following error which appears to be DNS related: The requested URL could not be retrieved While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.google.com/ The following error was encountered: Unable to determine IP address from host name for www.google.com The dnsserver returned: Refused: The name server refuses to perform the specified operation. This means that: The cache was not able to resolve the hostname presented in the URL. Check if the address is correct. Your cache administrator is root. My access.log shows the following entries: 1237099689.372 13 xx.xx.xx.xx TCP_HIT/301 546 GET http://google.com/ myusername NONE/- text/html 1237099689.515 15 xx.xx.xx.xx TCP_MISS/503 1512 GET http://www.google.com/ myusername DIRECT/www.google.com text/html So it appears that the problem is DNS related, however, I am able to resolve domain names with the same nameservers that Squid is using when I ping google.com or other domains. I have also tried using other nameservers which I have verified that work and Squid refused to resolve domains to IP addresses. Any help is appreciated!

Another thing I forgot to mention is that I have tried completely disabling my IPTables firewall and the problem persisted.
Re: [squid-users] Squid server as transparent proxy and problem with Rapid Share
Using TPROXY or bypass ip rapidshare from squid box by using iptables. Johan On Sat, Mar 14, 2009 at 3:38 PM, Azhar H.

Re: [squid-users] Squid server as transparent proxy and problem with Rapid Share
One solution could be using TProxy, where the remote IPs get to see the IPs of your clients', instead of Squid's. But, you'll need to assign real IPs to your clients for that.

[squid-users] How to make Squid to cache JSP redirected pages?
Hi, When I want to cache a Tomcat site which its index.jsp has a command to redirect the browser to another pages, Squid is getting lost, the browser shows the redirected page but the port number is wrong. Is there any way to handle this situation? I am using Squid 3.0 and setting up a reverse proxy. Thanks!
