I'm trying to figure out how to bypass Squid for certain sites that don't work properly. I am not using a transparent firewall so I have to bypass it on the Squid server itself.
You can't. You have to do this in the client config.
PAC scripts is very suitable for this.
Basically I don't want Squid to do anything except send the packets directly to the destination system. Doing a always_direct and no_cache doesn't seem to help.
This can not be done on a paket level.
As soon as the client has sent the request to the proxy it is too late to send it directly to the origin server. All the proxy can do is to detect the fact that the request was sent to the proxy, and has two options either attempt to forward(proxy) the request or reject the request giving an error message to the client.
