Hi

I'm behind the Great F*cking Wall of Mainland China, and tor is the
right way for me to bypass the GFW.

So I add the support of tor and privoxy to my existing squid box to
annoymous the request to web sites such as google. Everything goes just
fine except the HTTP POST request, and below is part of my
configuration :

------ cut here
acl POST method POST
acl TO_WIKI     dstdomain   -i  "/etc/squid/filters/wiki.filter"
acl TO_GOOGLE   dstdom_regex    -i  "/etc/squid/filters/google.filter"
acl TO_GCACHE   url_regex   search\?q=cache
acl TO_MISSING   dstdomain   -i  "/etc/squid/filters/missing.filter"

cache_peer      localhost   parent 8118 7 no-query default
always_direct   deny    TO_GOOGLE
always_direct   deny    TO_GCACHE
always_direct   deny    TO_WIKI
always_direct   deny    TO_MISSING
always_direct   deny    POST
always_direct   allow   all
------

The configuration above goes fine, the normal requests go through the
squid box directly and requests towards the defined ACL rules are
redirected to the privoxy listening locally, but with the POST request
to these restricted sites, the access_log show lines like

------ cut here
172.16.0.100 - - [18/Jan/2007:02:11:14 +0800] "POST
http://www.somesite.com/logging.php? HTTP/1.1" 504 1446 TCP_MISS:DIRECT
-------

It turns out to be a http error 504, If I have the configuration line
"never_direct allow all" uncommented, all the request could be
redirected to the local privoxy, but traffic'll be rather slow in this
situation.

Howto fix this up, Any clue's welcomed, thank you
