Squid works on the received headers. The request/reply header "denial" directives only change the outgoing sent headers. If you remove/deny a header with the Squid directives all you do is screw up the recipients abilities which are based on receiving that header. > Or, would squid suppose to write the full response headers to the Disk > and Memory object at the same shape it was received from the server? Yes it would. The removal is done on delivery of HITs. > As far as I can tell ICAP removes the headers before caching it to disk. Yes, ICAP works far earlier in the transaction processing. In particular ICAP is done before caching the object in order to prevent having to ICAP process all HITs. Amos
