I am not a squid user...yet...but I may be if it can do what I need. Can any of you kind souls tell if the following is possible...and not extremely difficult to setup by a neophyte: What I need: - Squid acts as a proxy server for HTTP traffic. It accepts HTTP traffic and forwards the traffic to either: 1) HTTP proxy server A if the destination host in the URL matches a list of local values 2) HTTP proxy server B if the destination host in the URL matches a different list of local values 3) the actual destination if the destination host in the URL is unmatched in either list ...where proxy A and B are other proxy servers servicing my network (and out of my control). This scheme has nothing to do with client IPs. It's all about the destination. I have an application that will call web services on a range of different servers and some of the web service calls must go through proxy A, others must go through proxy B, and some must be direct (i.e., no other proxy)...and the application can either handle no proxy or one proxy. I would like to install squid on the same box and point my application to 127.0.0.1 for its proxy server and let squid handle the rest. Thanks!
