Hi!

What application should I use as a proxy to route either to another proxy or send the request direct through based on the logic described in the function below?
(Can't find a more accurate way to describe it)

ProxyFunction(url)
{

if(url == *.jpg OR url == *.xml OR url == *.css)

return DIRECT

if(url == one.domainA.com OR url == two.domainB.com)

return DIRECT

if(url == domainA.com OR url == domanB.com)

return OTHER_PROXY

Return DIRECT

}

I plan to use it on my Synology NAS, so I'd prefer one of the applications available with ipkg, but I can download and compile (wget, configure, make, make install) myself if it is needed.

Not a networking question. Moved to Linux - Software.

Your pseudo code is confusing, as this *looks* like a proxy.pac file. if this IS meant to be browser config then that's all possible with proxy.pac files certainly. If this is to perform some sort of service on a remote box, I'd say that mod_proxy on apache can do all of this, or nginx.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod...proxypassmatch

Note that you'd want to use ProxyPreserveHost on the apache config so that when you send the traffic to a different proxy device, the original hostname will be there, not the hostname if the upstream proxy you specificy (or at least, that's likely to be what you want if I do understand your requirements)

EDIT _ and you can of course do this with a full web proxy, i.e. squid http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/SquidAcl with acls and cache_peer directives. Not sure how I managed to NOT mention squid...

Thanks, I'll look into those alternatives.

Yes, the behaviour source is a PAC-file, but the software needs to act as a server for my PS3 and iPad (Where PAC-files are not supported).

I've looked at http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.html but not found any reference to configure NoProxy on file-suffix. Where can I find examples on that?

tbh, squid really is the better option.

And I'm not sure you actually go "go direct" with mod_proxy. mod_rewrite would allow that certainly, as you can throw around variables much more easily. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/rew...ite_guide.html

But yeah.... squid first up.
