Hey, I was trying to use miss_access directive with an external acl I tried the following 2 configurations 1. miss_access allow acl_name miss_access deny all 2. miss_access allow !acl_name miss_access deny all where acl_name is an external acl using a helper program that always prints "OK". I get the same results in both the configuration (request is not forwarded). Does anyone know if miss_access is not meant to work with external acls ? I was also wondering if it is possible to get response headers or response codes (like 200, etc) for external acls .. i tried using it in http_reply_access and didnt seem to work .. does anyone know this ? Thanks in advance, Bharath
