Re: HTTP header cookies

Cookie is request,
Set-Cookie is response

The Set-Cookie header is sent by the server in response to an HTTP request, which is used to create a cookie on the user's system. The Cookie header is included by the client application with an HTTP request sent to a server, if there is a cookie that has a matching domain and path.

Re: HTTP header cookies

thx, but what happens with the header cookie (request) if the client is browsing over the proxy normally?
my squid 3 was setuped with default settings.

Re: HTTP header cookies

I think proxy doesn't change cookie (at least in default configuration)
