Just a quick question while we're on this... Can the following setup work: 0.0.0.0/24 - Access with auth_basic x.x.x.x/24 - Access via http_accel (Transparent) y.y.y.y/24 - Access via manual proxy conf y.y.y.y and x.x.x.x must not be authenticated... Running the latest squid 2.5 stable 8 (if I recall corectly). The above should be possible if the ACLs are setup correctly right? -- Chris.
