I have been running Squid as my companies intranet/internet proxy. It has done great. I use squidGuard for a redirector. Lately after upgrading to squid 2.5.5 I keep getting an error in cache.org when people try to connect to sites like webmail.aol.com, yahoo/hotmail/msn webmails. Here is the error:
2004/04/01 10:11:26| urlParse: Illegal character in hostname '.j' 2004/04/01 10:15:47| urlParse: Illegal character in hostname '.j' 2004/04/01 10:15:47| urlParse: Illegal character in hostname '.j' Weird huh? If I hit 'refresh' I can get passed this. Some of my users can't go anywhere with aol webmail though. Any ideas? The screen comes up with an 'Invalid URL'. I'm guessing that weird dotJ is the problem. Dunno how to get around it though. Here is my squid.conf file: shutdown_lifetime 5 seconds icp_port 0 http_port 192.168.2.11:8080 acl QUERY urlpath_regex cgi-bin \? no_cache deny QUERY cache_effective_user squid cache_effective_group squid pid_filename /var/run/squid.pid log_mime_hdrs off httpd_accel_host virtual httpd_accel_port 80 httpd_accel_with_proxy on httpd_accel_uses_host_header on forwarded_for off acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255 acl localnet src 192.168.2.0/24 192.168.1.0/24 192.20.20.0/24 172.16.22.0/24 172.16.23.0/24 172.16.24.0/24 acl SSL_ports port 443 563 acl Safe_ports port 80 # http acl Safe_ports port 21 # ftp acl Safe_ports port 443 563 # https, snews acl Safe_ports port 1025-65535 # unregistered ports acl Safe_ports port 280 # http-mgmt acl Safe_ports port 488 # gss-http acl Safe_ports port 591 # filemaker acl Safe_ports port 777 # multiling http acl Safe_ports port 8080 # Squids port (for icons) acl CONNECT method CONNECT http_access allow localhost http_access allow localnet http_access allow CONNECT localnet http_access deny !Safe_ports http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports http_access allow localhost http_access allow localnet http_access deny all always_direct allow localnet never_direct allow all error_directory /usr/local/etc/squid/errors #maximum_object_size 4096 KB #minimum_object_size 0 KB cache_mem 25 MB cache_dir null /null #cache_dir ufs /usr/local/squid/cache 100 16 256 request_body_max_size 0 KB httpd_accel_host virtual httpd_accel_port 80 httpd_accel_with_proxy on httpd_accel_uses_host_header on redirect_program /usr/local/bin/squidGuard Thanks.
