So far the conclusions is that this server is quite broken and I am suprised it at all works. * Most times (but not always) works when accessed directly using Mozilla * Always fails when accessed via Squid * Always fails when accessed by lynx * Always fails when accessed by Konqueror * Fails immediately when accessed using openssl s_client * Fails differently when using s_client but waiting 1 second after sending the request line before sending request headers.. I have not yet fully concluded why it most times works when using Mozilla directly but never when accessed via Squid. From what I can see it should fail when accessed directly as well, but appears not. I can only assume there is some subtle timing difference or similar as the s_client test indicates the server is very sensitive to timing that in terms of HTTP should not have any meaning at all. The odd thing is however that little or none of these timing differences is present when going via Squid vs going direct.. still a mystery what this server is doing or reacting upon. But one thing is certain, this server is extremely fragile and is not working the way it is supposed to. Regards Henrik
