RE: [squid-users] ACL Regex Browser - for Adobe Web capture?

a bug to Adobe? ok. sounds like a plan.

does anybody know how to use tcpdump to sniff what the browser is sending as
it's header?

thanks for that acl. problem is i've got say 6 or 8 people using Adobe PDF
capture. they're all on DHCP. i've got a similar acl for our servers which
obviously are on static numbers...

Sweet, isn't it?

I've generally had the opposite problem (programs had problems with
basic auth; work fine with NTLM). I've developed a workaround which
may work for you, too. I'll integrate my example with your squid.
conf:

acl noauth dst [IP Address]
acl lonsdaleall proxy_auth REQUIRED
http_access allow noauth
http_access allow lonsdaleall

The order of the acl lines doesn't matter, but the order of the http_access
lines does. Substitute [IP Adress] for the IP Addresses of the Adobe
Web Capture servers.

Oh, and report a bug to Adobe, also.

As to your other question, I've never had that problem. But then,
we're all on IE 5.5, and XP uses 6.0.
