[squid-users] Proxy-Authorization header

Basically, I'm just trying to not send out the Proxy-Authorization and
the Proxy-Connection request headers. This server I'm connecting to
seems to look up whether these 2 headers are sent, and if they are, it
handles the connection funnily.

Squid 3 is indeed correct.

It's a forward proxy.

Right. So in my case, should I relay it or create a new one? How do I
go about configuring that? cache_peer user=<myusername>
password=<mypassword>?

Thanks
