[squid-users] FW: Bypassing Squid for HTTP 1.1 chunked response

 
I am trying to resolve a problem when going to a Siebel application via
a Squid Proxy. It seems that the Siebel application (running on IIS
5.0) is responding to the HTTP 1.0 message with an HTTP 1.1
"Transfer-encoding: chunked" response as the Siebel application is
finding an "accept-encoding" header in the incoming requests.

From the FAQ I have tried bypassing SQUID using the following:

acl siebel dstdomain <YOUR WEB SERVER FQDN>

always_direct allow siebel

But this does not seem to be having the required effect of completely
bypassing the proxy.

I have also been through an old thread on a similar topic related to
connecting to Netscape:
http://lists.swelltech.com/pipermail/squid-users-archive/2001-August/045
402.html. But this seems to suggest that it was a problem with Netscape
and nothing could be done in SQUID.

When the IE client is configured not to go via the Proxy the HTTP 1.1
request works correctly but I need all traffic to go to the Proxy
Server.

Can anyone help with a way of configuring SQUID to be completely
bypassed for specific transactions i.e. sending the full HTTP 1.1
request from the client and responding with the full HTTP 1.1 response
for a specified FQDN?

Thanks

Peter
