Topic: Problem with Facebook <-> Squid

[holck]

I have SME server working as a common Internet port for a number of client machines. Mostly it works just fine, but lately I have experienced two, probably related problems:

1. When I (and I guess other users also) try to logon to Facebook, I often receive nothing but a blank page. If I reload the page, mostly I will succeed after a number of attempts.

2. My /var/log/squid/cache.log is filled with lines like these:

I have found people describing the same problem (e.g. here: http://www.mail-archive.com/squid-users@squid-cache.org/msg67561.html), but the suggested solution is, as far as I can tell, not possible with the SME version of squid.

Any ideas?
