Re: [squid-users] disable message errors

A "transparent" proxy is never trulu transparent like a router. For
example, a "transparently intercepting proxy" will act as if all IP
addresses that exists accepts connections on port 80, while this is
obviously not true. For example the real server may be down, or not
accepting connections.

So the question still is: What do you want your "transparent" proxy to
show to your users when their requests could not be forwarded to the
requested web server?

The browser has contacted what it thinks is the real web server, but
your supposedly "transparent" cache intercepted this and then found
out that it could not forward the request because the server is
unreachable or some other problem with the request.
