RE: [squid-users] Hotmail problem (2.4STABLEx solution)

I really should double-check my replies before sending them out. Sorry,
here is the line you need to add to your /etc/squid/squid.conf configuration
file. For 2.4 (STABLE6 and STABLE7):

anonymize_headers deny Accept-Encoding

That should do it. I've been using it for several days now.

Thanks for your reply. When I added that line my squid came back with

"2004/12/29 10:12:17| parseConfigFile: line 53 unrecognized: 'header_access
Accept-Encoding deny all'"

Do you mean http_access?

Thanks!

This question has been answered before, but here it is again:

For 2.4 (STABLE6 and STABLE7), use your editor to add a new line to your
/etc/squid/squid.conf (it may be somewhere else) file.

Add the following line:
header_access Accept-Encoding deny all

Save your file and restart squid. I use "service squid restart" (RH2.1AS).
That's it. 2.4 cannot support ACL's in the header access line (only 2.5+
can).

I also have 2.4.STABLE7; I believe the Hotmail problem was resolved by MSN
but I haven't turned squid back on yet.
I was unable to implement the hotmail solution for the reason given below.

I would consider to update my squid; but the instructions on the Squid FAQ
site don't make sense to me (run 3 squid servers at once or something, then
you upgrade one, but with no instructions on how to do it.)

Since upgrading would supposedly enable the Hotmail workaround, could
someone please point me to a *good* tutorial on how to do it (withOUT the
FAQ, thanks). Also, Do I need to upgrade any packages in my kernel to do
that? I have 2.4.18. Thanks

Squid-2.4 has something similar, but I do not remember what it was.
Something about anonymization.

You really should update..
