HTTP Anti-Virus Proxy

Hello,

I've now switched HAVP and Squid together (Client->Squid->HAVP) but it keeps me getting "Inavlid Request" from HAVP.
I was able to track this down, it seems that HAVP is not correctly working as parent:

* HAVP needs request in the following from:

GET / HTTP/1.0
Host: www.yahoo.com

* SQUID needs them in the following form:

GET http://www.yahoo.com/ HTTP/1.0
Host: www.yahoo.com

However, Squid fails if it does not get http://domain/... and HAVP
fails if it does get http://domain/...

HAVP is configured within squid this way:
cache_peer localhost parent 8080 0 no-query no-digest no-netdb-exchange default


Thanks,
Matt

Ups ... did forget something:

Any suggestions, except writing a wrapper?

Thanks,
Matt

Sounds like your HAVP is configured with TRANSPARENT true. If you want transparent, then in this case you only configure Squid to it.

Cheers,
Henrik

Thanks Henrik. I just read the Transparent Proxy mini-HOWTO and it was obvious that I should not set TRANSPARENT to true in HAVP.

btw, the link of the Transparent Proxy mini-HOWTO in the configuration-file is outdated, so there should be used this one instead:
