I missed having problems just so could talk to you guys. I do want to say that, in five years of experience in administration of Debian based systems, this list has allways been the most accurate resource. I use it as a last resource for best results. Now, to the matter at hand, the redirect solution would break authentication on the proxy woulndt it? Do you have authentication in your proxy? Just to brag about it. Authentication is important and cool. I make squid auth through pam_pgsql to the phpgroupware database, which is synced with the courier imap user database. This is cool cause users have one password for everything. > Regards, Linuxbug > > > > > > > -----Original Message----- From: Carlos Martinez > [mailto:cmartinezlp@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, April 22, 2005 12:49 > AM To: Robert Vangel Cc: debian-isp@lists.debian.org Subject: Re: > Squid + Windows Update > > Robert Vangel wrote: > >> I have noticed that IE seems to be configured to ignore proxy >> settings for Windows Update in certain situations. >> >> I don't know what these situations are, but just from monitoring >> multiple networks sometimes the configured settings are used & >> other times they aren't. >> >> More than likely the only way you can force the proxy to be used >> is to set it up transparently. >> >> Alex Borges wrote: >> >>> Consider the following: >>> >>> a) A firewall+squid proxy that serves a large network b) Mostly >>> windows clients c) Proxy listens in port 3128, windows hosts >>> are configured by hand to use the proxy, the firewall forbids >>> forwarding to all the clients, thus forcing them to use the >>> proxy. >>> >>> Has anyone noticed: >>> >>> a) Some newer windows update programs cannot seem to pickup on >>> the fact that they have a proxy configured >>> >>> b) In the event of you using one of these, tcpdump shows the >>> hosts attempting direct connections to servers outside on port >>> 80? >>> >>> I think microsoft finally farked squid up for good in this kind >>> of setting. >>> >>> >>> > Hello. > > Yes, Try in transparent mode.It will maybe work fine. > > |
