I am guessing you have also tried just pointing a client to the squid box right?
I am relatively new with all of this but I am going to try and take a wild guess.


The Symantec proxy is not making a PROXY request to the squid box, instead it is making a regular HTTP request. Squid may need to be configured in transparent mode, this is the mode where squid takes a regular request from a browser as if it was connecting to a web server and not to a proxy server.

Beside the documentation on the squid web page, here is another good link:

Sorry Lucio. I mis-sent it directly to you instead of to the list.

It appears that I can telnet to port 3128. I telnet to the port from the SWS
server, but it is just blank with no prompts or anything. After typing in
quit, exit, etc. I see the following text:

Connection to host lost.

Is that expected?

I tested with a regular system by pointing my browser to 3128 and it worked
fine.

My next step was pointing SWS to 3128 by configuring within SWS 3.0 for
NT/2000 to point to a proxy server (10.0.0.102:3128 on the internal NIC).

SWS does work (it has been working fine for over a year) directly to the
Internet and through a firewall with NAT as well. No problems with that
part.

Just pointing SWS to go to the squid on the SuSe box is where I am having
problems.

I haven't contacted Symantec yet.

Any suggestions?

Greg

Yes we did. Can you do a telnet squid-ip-address 3128 on the SWS ?
