Do you have any more details on this that might give us a better idea of your situation and problem? Which version of squid? Are your users configured to explicitly use the proxy? ... or transparently intercepted? Are you sure the IM are even using the proxy? most actually don't without going to some trouble to make them. Thanks i tried googling but was not very sucessful.. apprecite if anyone can advise n let me know if i could bypass squid cache for YAHOO MESSANGER and WINDOWS MESSNAGER for my private ip users but all the browsing works perfect Really appreciate your help regards simon Amos -- Please use Squid 2.6STABLE17+ or 3.0STABLE1+ There are serious security advisories out on all earlier releases.
RE: [squid-users] bypass squid cache
Dear Simon, How was your network topology? Does all connection through proxy first or router box first? Try caching only for port 80 (http), and bypass the others. Maybe a glance on your squid.conf might help us understanding your problem.

Re: [squid-users] bypass squid cache
Dear simon. I think the problem is in ur ISP: 1- do they cache transparently or by hardware the bandwidth? It may cause this. 2- do they have tcp filtering rulls on their switch or router wich u get bandwitdth? 3- ask about it from them, I think you donot recieve Virgine!! bandwidth;) nima On 1/16/08, simon benedict <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dear All, > > i have been using squid on Red hat linux for a long > time and its workin perfectly fine > > recently we changed our ISP and we found that our > users on private IP's were not able to sign in with > YAHOO MESSANGER OR WINDOWS MESSANGER. > > when contacted the ISP it was told that we have to > bypass the squid cache and probably it may work > > > i tried googling but was not very sucessful.. > > apprecite if anyone can advise n let me know if i > could bypass squid cache for YAHOO MESSANGER and > WINDOWS MESSNAGER for my private ip users > > but all the browsing works perfect > > Really appreciate your help > > > regards > > simon > > > > > > Looking for last minute shopping deals? > Find them fast with Yahoo!
