The site is http://webmail.ne.rr.com - it's the webmail for the RoadRunner ISP that one of our customers is using. Our customer gave us a username and password to help diagnose the problem, but obviously and unfortunately I can't pass it on. I can get to the login screen without a problem, but when I try logging in I get an alert box that reads: 'Session timed out. Log in again' and it then redirects me back to the login screen. > Otherwise you can try tcpdump/tethereal/ethereal to dump the network > traffic and analyse the difference between going through a proxy or > bypassing it.

Yes. Although interception caching is enabled, all of the tests that I have been running have involved me pointing my browser directly at the proxy. > > redirect_program /usr/local/bin/jesred > > Does it work without this? Nope. I tried removing it and it still didn't work. After that didn't work I just started removing things that didn't seem entirely necessary. So, I ended up with a pretty bare-bones configuration and the error remained. Then I tried using the stock squid installation that Fedora Core 4 installs. The only thing I changed in Fedora's configuration was to allow connections to it from my network. I see the same problem. Could RoadRunner be doing something on purpose that would make proxies not work? What could they be doing that would make requests arriving through a proxy not work? Has anyone had any similar problems with other sites? > Christoph Thank You, Mark Drago.
