Squid then processes the request based on a series of ACLs, and either allows the request or redirects (deny_info ... all) the request to a page on the proxy box.

What is actually happening is that requests for pages in the authorized_hosts acl get the generic squid "Access Denied" page. Other requests do get my custom page, as expected.

One additional piece of information I just discovered: when running squid in debug mode and making a request to an "allowed" page, it shows the following (for example):

2014/07/24 14:36:07| WARNING: Forwarding loop detected for:
GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: nws.noaa.gov
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.9; rv:20.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/20.0
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8
Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5

X-Forwarded-For: 192.168.10.51
Cache-Control: max-age=259200
Connection: keep-alive


Which makes me think that maybe the squid request for the page is being redirected back to squid somehow? I using the same line in PF that I'm using in the older, functional, system, which is:

pass in quick on $insideIF inet proto tcp to !192.168.10.1 port www rdr-to 127.0.0.1 port 3128

So as I read it, it should only redirect incoming requests on the inside interface that are not destined for the machine itself. As such, any requests that squid is making should go through.
