RE: [squid-users] squid is modifying Host header

A minor correction here. The SSL offload device (Nortel Application Switch) does some networking magic so neither the originating request nor the forwarded request has a port in the Host header. HTTPS requests arrive on 443, get decrypted and passed through to 8443 as HTTP.

I'll try this.

Unfortunately I've tried 2.7.STABLE9-1.el5 and the SSL offload device doesn't properly recognise the response.
