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?

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

[Efw-user] Strange HTTP Proxy issue both 2.2rc2 and 2.2 28 May 09 release
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? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Strange-HTTP-Proxy-issue-both-2.2rc2-and-2.2-28-May-09-release-tp23880005p23880005.html Sent from the efw-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- OpenSolaris 2009.06 is a cutting edge operating system for enterprises looking to deploy the next generation of Solaris that includes the latest innovations from Sun and the OpenSource community.
