Hello list,
I have configured squid 2.7 on opensuse 11.4. This is a transparent proxy. But
through this proxy login into phpmyadmin or any pages where user authentication
is required is not possible. It is not the credential is wrong but through the
proxy the credential are not working. If I disable the anonymity everything is
running well. What might be the problem ? Here is the configuration which I am
using for anonymity.
Think about that for a while please.
An "anonymous" proxy is failing to send your identity information
(aka login) to a third party website.
To me that seems to be what you asked for.
Though I advise you that the "anonymous" config you are using is nowhere
close to actual anonymity. User-Agent, Cookie, Authorization,
WWW-Authorization, Accept-Language and Accept-Charset can all uniquely
identify you.
As to your problem, its possible they are using one of the newer HTTP
headers. The standards are changing all the time. We get asked to
register new headers a few times a year to keep up and 2.7 is *very* old
now.

Hello Amos,
Thanks for your reply. Could you kindly suggest the possible configuration for
the actual anonymity ?
Regarding 2.7, it is shipped with opensuse 11.4 and 11.4 is the latest version.
Anyhow I really like to see the config which can provide me to make squid
anonymous.
Thanks
Removing the allows for those headers I mentioned is about as close as
you can get in Squid 2.7. Real anonymity will break a lot of access to
many websites these days which "require" identity details to access. As
you found the phpmyadmin etc and anywhere where you have to register and
login.
