Re: [Efw-user] Strange HTTP Proxy issue both 2.2rc2 and 2.2 28 May 09 release

2009-06-05 Thread Steven Sher
I think I have seen the same problem on a box running Endian 2.2  running 
transparent proxy and seems to block google.co.za in certain instances for some 
reason, not always consistent.  I do not even have content filtering enabled.

Anybody know what the problem is?

Steve

release

Today I had a windows 2000/IE6 client having problems
opening their home page. 

Their http proxy is set to run as transparent. I decided to
try changing the client's IE to use the proxy server by
entering its IP and using port 8080, and to bypass the proxy
for local addresses, and her home page came right up.

In the past on my own efw, I've had odd things happen - like
a flash window within a page not being able to load. The
rest of the page would load, but not one small section of
it. I turned off transparent, and used 'no authentication",
and set IE to use my efw directly. (Tools>Internet
Options>Connection tab>Lan settings button)

You might also run top to see if some process is using too
much cpu time...

Re: [Efw-user] Strange HTTP Proxy issue both 2.2rc2 and 2.2 28 May 09 release

2009-06-04 Thread Andreas Schiller
I've seen something similar on another firewall/security gateway than endian 
using a transparent http proxy:

Some clients were asking for software updates (it was adobe reader, when I 
remember right), on the proxy the update was scanned by havp/clamav for quite 
a while and so the updater on the clients site thought, that the conection 
timed out and tried to download again and again and again and...

This way all of the memory and all of cpu of the gateway was consumed and 
other actions on the http proxy were extremely slow.

You might try to find out, if something similar is happening to you. Try using 
top on the shell, try reading the proxy logs. And if you find something similar 
then you could bypass the proxy for these targets.

Greetz, 
Andy

[Efw-user] Strange HTTP Proxy issue both 2.2rc2 and 2.2 28 May 09 release

2009-06-04 Thread McJerry

I've had efw 2.2rc2 running since its release and until today have had NO
problems.  I have it configured with multiple uplinks on red,
green+blue+orange.  Today, with 2.2rc2 running, client browsing became
extremely slow and at times would time out.  I tried disabling uplinks one
at a time to rule out the possibility they were having issues.  Finally I
disabled the HTTP proxy and clients started browsing as normal.  There has
been NO changes to the configuration in many months.  Enabling the HTTP
proxy again caused problems.

I swapped the box and performed a fresh install of the current 2.2 release. 
After manually configuring to match the other box and restarting all modems
and the efw box, I was browsing fine until I enabled the HTTP proxy.

What could cause this strange problem?  What can I do to resolve the issue?
