Re: [squid-users] mail Client acces via child proxy

Hi Marc,

Thanks.

> www---isp_proxy---proxy_1---proxy_2---clientx

On proxy_1, as you suggested we already have...

acl Safe_ports port 8383

I am not an admin of proxy_2, so I can't check but I gave this value in the
specimen configuration. - I will get an answer to this.
I assume it is set as users CAN log on to the email web server.

I was lloking at the FAQ (4.8 & 4.9) and would like to know the meaning of
the zero (0) after the 3128 entry.

cache_peer parentcache.foo.com parent 3128 0 no-query default

Our entry on proxy_1 is...

cache_peer parentcache.co.uk parent 8080 3130 no-query default

3130 is NOT set as a safe port.

and on our child (proxy_2), it's...

cache_peer parentcache_IP parent 3128 3130 no-query default

Note that we use an IP address here!

Could the 3130 be the cause of the problem?

Kind regards
Adrian Wells

 You may need to add port 8383 to your Safe_ports acl in squid.conf.
