Hi, I've seen this similar issue for a lot of people around the web, and have tried my best to debug my access rules. The error message I get is : 1335968823.335 8 127.0.0.1 TCP_DENIED/407 2201 GET cache_object://localhost/ jeff@xxxxxxxxxx NONE/- text/html I'm pretty sure I'm missing something miniscule, but need help finding it. Here are my access rules in my squid.conf root@proxy:/etc/squid3# grep -e ^acl -e ^http_acc /etc/squid3/squid.conf acl manager proto cache_object acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/32 acl example src 192.168.11.16/32 acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8 0.0.0.0/32 acl westhants proxy_auth REQUIRED http_access allow westhants http_access allow manager localhost http_access allow manager example http_access deny all acl westhants-network src 192.168.11.0/24 acl SSL_ports port 443 acl Safe_ports port 80 # http acl Safe_ports port 21 # ftp acl Safe_ports port 443 # https acl Safe_ports port 70 # gopher acl Safe_ports port 210 # wais acl Safe_ports port 1025-65535 # unregistered ports acl Safe_ports port 280 # http-mgmt acl Safe_ports port 488 # gss-http acl Safe_ports port 591 # filemaker acl Safe_ports port 777 # multiling http acl CONNECT method CONNECT http_access deny !Safe_ports http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports http_access allow localhost http_access allow westhants-network http_access deny all Thanks! -- Jeff MacDonald jeff@xxxxxxxxxx 902 880 7375
