Alex, thank you for the quick reply.      
They are not actually passing a url to the squid server.   The nginx config 
allowed me to have a line as such:

proxy_pass https://calcconnect.vertexsmb.com/vertex-ws/services/CalculateTax

The xml just got passed straight through to the url in the config file.    Is 
there something comparable in squid I can set to tell it where to pass the 
code?   I am working on getting the wireshark packets but the  server is in a 
secure zone so there aren't any easy options for getting a file from it. 

Thanks~
Cindy

Perhaps your Order Entry server does not use HTTP when talking to Squid?

Squid does not really care about the request payload, but the request has to 
use the HTTP transport protocol. So sending a SOAP/XML request payload over 
HTTP is OK, but sending raw SOAP (or SOAP over something other than HTTP) is 
not.

If you can post a packet capture of the Order Entry server talking to Squid 
(not the text interpretation of Squid response but the actual packets going 
from the Order Entry server to Squid; use libpcap format which is often the 
default for Wireshark export), then we should be able to confirm whether your 
Order Entry server is using the right protocol to talk to/through Squid.

The same packet capture can point to HTTP request problems if the Order Entry 
server is using HTTP but sending some HTTP token that Squid does not like (or 
not sending an HTTP token that Squid needs).


HTH,

Alex.
