Re: [squid-users] many "parseHttpRequest: Unsupported method" found

Hi Amos
is this kind connection harmful for Squid daemon? I meant Besides Squid drop this connection, would this kind of connection cause unstable to the daemon ?

Also, how could I know the destination IP/host of this kind of connections ?
I could find the client (source) IP address from access.log only.

Thanks
Best Regards,
S K
