I know Squid by default blocks all traffic access but I'm not sure what settings to edit if someone could take a look at the settings I have attempted to make changes on and let me know if I'm on the right track ...here is a snippet from squid.conf
One question though…squid still refuses all of my traffic for some reason here is my current http_access config…any suggestions?
Code:
#Default:
# http_access deny all
#
#Recommended minimum configuration:
#
# Only allow cachemgr access from localhost
http_access allow manager localhost
http_access deny manager
# Only allow purge requests from localhost
http_access allow purge localhost
http_access deny purge
# Deny requests to unknown ports
#http_access deny !Safe_ports
# Deny CONNECT to other than SSL ports
# http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports
here is the error I get when I redirect all firefox traffic thru the proxy...
Code:
ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved
While trying to retrieve the URL: http://192.168.1.1/Forward.htm
The following error was encountered:
* Access Denied.
Access control configuration prevents your request from being allowed at this time. Please contact your service provider if you feel this is incorrect.

Yes I did correct the previous post, but instead of the system correcting the post it created an alternate post for which I was reprimanded by the web admin for this site...you should advise them to take the "edit" feature from newly submitted posts as it doesnt work properly.
