Hai

I using one squid proxy server. my clients all are connected through this server. port no is 3128.my need is when client remove lansettings in system then network automatically disconnect. is there any option is in squid.conf. pls tel me . or any other way
and one more thing is thunderbird not working in my squid proxy server.

pls tel me some steps

bye

you want your clients machines to drop the network connection if they change any settings? what's that got to do with a proxy server? Additionally thunderbird would not use squid for imap / pop3 / smtp mail services, squid is an http / ftp proxy only.

Hi, I use the squid proxy server too.

The ip for the ethernet connection (for your clients) on the server will be

listed in /etc/squid/squid.conf

On my system this is eth0,

if I change the config (ip) for eth0 it will affect squid,

unless I change squid as well.

What ports does thunderbird require?

In squid.conf use acl Safe_ports

example...
You may need to change the port settings in your firewall too.

I use an iptable script, Forwarding Ports, or maybe the defalt rule will do anyway.

I would suggest you should use a proxy.pac script and just list both proxy addresses in there in order to push the failover back to the clients.

Dear Sir
