I Found a solution about "no route to host" messagge which appers when browser goes to Windows Update site
analyzing system. I type in the url of my browser directly Windows Update site and not IP addresses. I insert into the "hosts" file, located in system directory, all server names which W.U. wants to meet. So I specified in this file more Ip address (correspondent to the virtual ip address in squid accelerator) to point to the several servers necessary for Windows Update process. I sniffed packets and I saw an interesting thing. Browser's client sends a request on 443 port (https) to the Squid Accelerator but Accelerator listen only to 80 port and not 443 . I saw Squid acting as Proxy server listen to a particular port (usually 3128) but it's able to accept https requests which are indicated inside url; so it can answer browser. Instead Accelerator doesn't know how handling https requests because there is the only 80 port listened. It's possible to have the same Squid Accelerator listen on more ports or to be able to accepr https requests ? regards Riccardo __________________________________________________________________ Social price: l'ADSL diventa per tutti Tiscali ADSL Senza Canone 640Kbps: GRATIS fino al 3 maggio costo di adesione, attivazione e il modem per tutto il 2004.
