Running 4.4, installed squid from ports (2.7.STABLE3). From another box, ran the following:
$ squidclient -h urd.spidernet.to -p 3128 http://www.youtube.com HTTP/1.0 400 Bad Request Date: Thu, 26 Mar 2009 19:53:00 GMT Server: Apache X-YouTube-MID: WkFSZzctYUFHdmpjSDF1WjZ5RFNrSng3NklNV0RhVHQ4UG55cEw3ek9xOVphWFhBb01YNUFn Expires: Tue, 27 Apr 1971 19:44:06 EST X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff Cache-Control: no-cache Content-Type: text/plain X-Cache: MISS from urd.spidernet.to Via: 1.1 urd.spidernet.to:3128 (squid/2.7.STABLE3) Connection: close $ squidclient -h urd.spidernet.to -p 3128 -H 'User-Agent: bah\n' http://www.youtube.com and it works. Added the following line (and stopped, and started squid again): header_replace User-Agent Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.3) Gecko/2008092414 Firefox/3.0.3 $ squidclient -h urd.spidernet.to -p 3128 http://www.youtube.com still fails. Anyone seen this? I'll go do some more troubleshooting tonight, but it appears that this version of squid is eating the User-Agent string. This is from a clean install from /usr/ports/www/squid - "make install; sudo -u _squid /usr/local/sbin/squid -z; sudo -u _squid /usr/local/sbin/squid" Thanks!!! -- http://www.glumbert.com/media/shift http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGvHNNOLnCk "This officer's men seem to follow him merely out of idle curiosity." -- Sandhurst officer cadet evaluation.
