[squid-users] proxy.pac vs manual proxy + LiveLink

Hello,

I've searched the archives and received no mojo...

Set-up:
=======

Squid Cache: Version 2.4.STABLE2

We've been using squid and a proxy.pac for a long time, while some
folks use a manual entry pointing all accesses directly at the proxy.

Both browser configurations have worked flawlessly. Until
now. My very simple test proxy.pac currently looks like this:

function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
 {
    if (isInNet(host, "127.0.0.1", "255.255.255.255") ||
        dnsDomainIs(host, ".my.dom") )
        return "DIRECT";
    else
        return "PROXY nnn.nnn.nnn.nn:3128;"
 }

Where the IP address matches www-proxy.my.dom.

The Problem:
============

A user complained to me that they were unable to log in to
a LiveLink server when they use the proxy.pac. HOWEVER, if
they use the manual setting, point directly at the proxy server
and port 3128, they can log in.

I have verified this behavior with the above proxy.pac, and the
manual setting.

1. Using proxy.pac (no worky) - there is a CONNECT message in
    access.log:

1028835421.884 338 nnn.nnn.nnn.nn TCP_MISS/200 922 CONNECT livelink.some.dom:443 - DIRECT/xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -

2. Using manual proxy config (which works!) - there is __No__
    message in access.log

I'm thinking there is something in my config that I need to tweek,
maybe an ACL or something?

I don't want to include the whole config - but I don't what would
be relevent under these circumstances... If it would be helpful
to provide the ACL settings, or whatever, let me know.

Thanks,

deb
