Re: [SQU] Squid and Java Applets

Sanjay,
    Squid won't be stripping the applets in this case. However many applets try to communicate with their server directly, or using
other TCP ports.

CHAT applets, by definition do this.
so....
You WILL need to enable NAT and ipchains or some similar combination on your gateway to get them owkring properly.

This looks like a squid issue, but actually its a straght forward firewalling/gatewaying isssue.

Caveat: I could be wrong:] If you have some logs that indicate 'strip' rather than 'can't connect directly' please send an extract
to the list ..
