Or any other external source for that matter. i'm looking for the ability
to *define* ACLs dynamically, not just statically reference a dynamic list
of urls (for example).
This is to allow on-the-fly creation of groups, and new policies that
apply to those groups, without editing squid.conf and reloading. If this
is a stupid idea, or i'm going about it the wrong way - please let me
know. I've been a casual user of squid for years but this is the first
time I've dug must past the surface.
Squid does not by design provide any dynamic ACL creation.
What is provided are several points for calling external helpers to do
it. Request redirection / url_rewrite etc and external_acl_type are the
options to lookup.
How you use them is entirely up to your specific needs and network
abilities.
