browser header
Hi All,
I am running iptables with squid. I did a Browser header test and the test shows the following:
Via: 1.1 pc.domain.net:3128 (squid/2.5.STABLE5), 1.0 netcache2-ctn (NetCache NetApp/5.3.1R2)
Why is it showing my pc's host name? How do i prevent it from happening?
Do i need to do something in iptables or squid?
If what would someone please help, thanks?
Regards

you're running iptables and squid on a Network Appliance NetCache? or is there a NetCache between you and the web server that isn't under your control?

because it's supposed to.

well--which one handles all your HTTP connections?
never mind...add these to squid.conf:
header_access Via deny all
header_access X-Forwarded-For deny all
this assumes that the proxy server that's selling you out is actually under your control, and not somewhere upstream from you.
