[squid-users] Outlook Web Access and squid

 
Actually, i'm using squid with authentication but not as http_accel_host but
as a web proxy... (OWA is not on this LAN i access it through the internet
to another site on other company)
DNS is not an issue, i have DNS servers inside and forwarders to the outside
(internet)
squid is not compiled with internal DNS...
 
So squid listens on it's default port 3128 and OWA listens on 80, my owa
works just fine on a modem or going straigth, but if i go through squid i
cannot see the contents of my folders (inbox, outbox, etc)
 
Squid only shows in the logs (Method not implemented)
As i was telling you, i had this problem before with Raptor, its native type
of http proxy didn't support the method, so i had to change it to a plain
proxy wich sends any thing that is being requested on one side (valid or
not) to the other side, or a packet filtering rule....
 
My theory is that OWA and Exchange uses a kind of requests that only the
exchange server understands (not a standard for http), so if you put a proxy
that rejects any invalid request it won't work...
 
Any comments?

I have got it working allright, (I only want to use the squid
authentication, but for you that should not be the case
I am still waiting for a way to authenticate)
 
First make sure OWA works on your intranet.
Then make sure your SQUID is compiled without the internal dns.
(Or run your own DNS server that supports the internet and your intranet,
thats what I do)
Put your OWA IP address in the hosts file (Not needed if you run your own
DNS)
 
Make sure squid listens on the internet side on port 80.
Make http_accel_host point to your OWA (You could simple enter the intranet
address here)
On the Internet make OWA.YOURCOMPANY.COM point to the internet side of your
squid.
 
 
Should work. (It works for me, but again, I want a differend authentication)
 
PS I use squid 2.4

Hey!
 
i'm a Exchange2000 and squid administrator, i and i can't access my OWA thru
squid...
 
I saw a question already of this issue, but i could not find how it ends and
if it's possible, i also tried the squid-cache.org search but i didn't find
any comments....
 
NOTE: I've tried to connect thru a Raptor Firewall and it i was receiving
the same error (method not supported), i had to change the http proxy for a
plain non-featured http proxy to make it works...
 
the error that i'm receiving is :
994655364.364 2 99.90.16.122 NONE/400 2586 NONE
error:unsupported-request-m
ethod - NONE/- -
 
I'm using Squid 2.4.STABLE1 on a 2.2.16-22smp kernel (Linux Redhat7)
 
Any comments?
