I am sorry but pharaps there is a confusion for my problem and my configuration. I don't use 127.0.0.1 (that is only for test !), my configuration is: http_port 10.0.0.254:3128 .. and in httpd.conf there is: listen 10.0.0.254:80 ..now when for my machine (internal lan) I try to access cachemanager with address: http://10.0.0.254/cgi-bin/cachemgr.cgi and parameter: Cache Manager Interface This is a WWW interface to the instrumentation interface for the Squid object cache. Cache Host: 10.0.0.254 Cache Port: 3128 Manager name: cachemanager Password: ***** Generated Tue, 03 May 2005 13:43:10 GMT, by cachemgr.cgi/2.5.STABLE3@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx .. I have the following error: ERROR The requested URL could not be retrieved While trying to retrieve the URL: cache_object://10.0.0.254/ The following error was encountered: Access Denied. Access control configuration prevents your request from being allowed at this time. Please contact your service provider if you feel this is incorrect.
