basically, here's the deal. we have a move this weekend and we will not have notified all of our web customers that their domain name IP's need to be changed. so the idea is to have a squid box answering requests for those domain names, and then retrieving the REAL domain names websites and serving them, until we have everyones DNS changed.
here's a picture: [client] | [squid]----[webserver]
very simple, no firewalls, everything has a routable IP address. I'd like the squid box to listen on the old IP's of the webserver, and just forward those incoming requests to the new IP's, and pass the webpages to the clients who still have old DNS information.
will that work?
I've turned off all ACL's and http_access, so that it's a totally open box. I have these settings turned on:
http_port 80 httpd_accel_host virtual httpd_accel_port 0 httpd_accel_with_proxy on httpd_accel_single_host off
now on my machine I've taken one of our domain names, and added it to my /etc/hosts file, pointing it at my squid server. but when I try to browse it, squid never retrieves the page, it returns this:
ERROR The requested URL could not be retrieved
While trying to retrieve the URL: http://192.168.1.85/
