Re: [SQU] telnet and squid

Yes it is possible to utilize the CONNECT method:

acl CONNECT method CONNECT
acl telnet_port port 23
http_access allow all CONNECT telnet_port # NOTE: this opens up telnet
abilities to ALL ip addresses.

To utilize the CONNECT method your HTTP request should look something like
this (You should look at the RFC, as I might not be correct):

CONNECT www.servername.or.ip.number.com:portnumber HTTP/1.0

In your case it would just be:
    CONNECT ServerAddress:23 HTTP/1.0

Also, in response to Henrik Nordstrom's message about squid being badly
configured. I must disagree here, the CONNECT method has many great uses.
It is ONLY badly configured if the ACL does not prevent abuse. For example,
you would never want to include the "all" acl, like I did above, on a proxy
that is directly on the Internet... instead you would want to use an ACL
that limits access to ONLY your ip addresses. Just be careful with your
configuration.
