Subject: [squid-users] Accessing site on ports higher than 1024

===8<==============Original message text===============

I have a linux box which acts as a gateway between my cable modem and my home
PC.
I don't have ip_forward enabled meaning that i don't have direct IP access to
the internet.
To access the internet i installed squid (i'm running a debian box) and it
has been working fine to access sites on port 80 and 443.

However now i want to access sites on ports higher that 1024 (ex:
http://xxx.ezoshosting.com:2312 and can't access these sites.
The url provided is just an example in fact i can't access any other site on
any other port than 80 and 443.

Can i use squid to access these sites or do i need a socks proxy like "dante"
?
Or if squid can do it, what directives do i need to have configured to do it
?

Thanks
Pedro Ruivo
