setup squid3 to accept all cookies

['chris']

hi

what happens with cookies via squid normally?
if they are denied by default, howto setup squid3 to accept all cookies?

if the client is browsing via proxy, where cookies are stored in a squid cache or in a local browser cache?

Cookies are passed through to the client by default. If you want to remove them, you must specifically ask squid to remove the "Cookie:" HTTP header from the requests and/or replies.

Be aware that many webshops, online banking services and the like require cookies to work.

Proxies won't generally cache any cookies: they are stored in the browser only. The cookie storage is distinct from the browser cache.
