Please look at moving to 2.7.STABLE9 at minimum. There are many
important fixes included there.
OK !
Yes. always_direct only determines whether your cache_peer entries are
allowed to be used to fetch from. You don't mention any so I assume it
is actually useless for you.
The re-writer is used to determine *what* URL those requests are asking
for.
Is there a way to configure squid the way it does not pass this sites to
the rewriter ?
url_rewrite_access controls what goes to the helper.
Thank you
If I may, what purpose is this re-writer serving?
filtering. We are a public hospital and have to filter because of
security concerns and also for image reasons. Local newspaper are very
fast to write about public employees that look at the "wrong" sites if
they discover it.
