Deny to cache a website in squid

hi all,

I have a squid running in Fedora core server. i don't want squid to cache a specific website. Can anyone plz tell me how I am going to that ???????

There are at least 2 ways to do this, depending on your setup.
1)

Can I make Squid go direct for some sites?

Sure, just use the always_direct access list.

For example, if you want Squid to connect directly to hotmail.com servers, you can use these lines in your config file:

acl hotmail dstdomain .hotmail.com
always_direct allow hotmail

If you have trouble with this, check the version of squid you use, and search the squid faq (link above).

2) use the proxy section of the network setup in firefox or konqueror (or whatever browser you use) to not access the proxy for listed sites.
I use this as my main pc is the proxy and gateway server.
