Re: [squid-users] how to append to the requests to origin

Thanks for the response.

The idea is to make entries in origin's access log easily
distinguishable and usefull. The prototype I've is as follows:

Anything from my squids to their origin servers should have a
"Bill-To" header, something like,

~$ curl -v http://192.168.1.100/index.html -o /dev/null --header
"Bill-To:Western" --silent
* About to connect() to 192.168.1.100 port 80 (#0)
* Trying 192.168.1.100... connected
* Connected to 192.168.1.100 (192.168.1.100) port 80 (#0)
 GET /index.html HTTP/1.1
 User-Agent: curl/7.16.4
 Host: 192.168.1.100
 Accept: */*
 Accept-Encoding: deflate, gzip
 Bill-To:Western <----------------------

The origin server would then log it in its access log as:

Bill-To:Western host:192.168.1.100 virt:127.0.1.1 <snip>
