Sorry, but I'm resending this because I accidentally cut off the last portion of the e-mail that shows the tcpdump output from a successful download from the proxy itself. Sorry again:
I'm having a problem with my Squid setup when trying to download files from an IIS-based site. Basically, when I attempt to download something on my intranet (through my Squid setup) to the IIS sites in question, the downloads may go about 99% of the way through before it just stalls out (at which point, I lose my patience and terminate the download attempt). If I attempt the same download from the proxy server itself, the download works fine. I wasn't sure if this had something to do with (1) there's no content-length assigned to the headers of what I'm trying to download, (2) when going through the proxy, the transfer-encoding is set to chunked, or (3) IIS in general.
The version of Squid I was using initially was squid-2.5.STABLE14-1.4E, as part of RHEL4. I also compiled and reinstalled squid 2.6STABLE20, but had the same results. The tcpdump data below is from my 2.5stable14-1.4e attempt. The download clients I used included curl, Firefox 2, and IE6.
Here's the beginning tcpdump data from a failed download through the proxy server:
