Re: Fw: [squid-users] Not able to access specific web sites.

Hi,

You should read the FAQ on how acl and http_access work.

This matches when:
        your URL is in noporn
                AND
        your IP is in "all"
                AND
        your IP is in "localnet"
                AND
        your IP is in "localhost"

Clearly these conditions are unlikely to be simultaneously true, so this rule
can never match.

The ordering of the "acl" lines is irrelevant. Read the FAQ. There you'll see
something like

        http_access allow|deny acl AND acl AND acl ...
                OR
        http_access allow|deny acl AND acl AND acl ...
                OR
        http_access .....
