| Hello all,

| This is my first post here so feel free to correct me if I'm doing
| something wrong.

| I'm trying to fine tune my Squid proxy. I've searched the mailing list
| archives without founding answers.

| I'd like (like a lot of Squid managers) block some brandwich consuming
| files (ie mp3). I've added this acl:

| acl nodownload rep_mime_type audio
| acl nodownload rep_mime_type video
| http_reply_access deny nodownload

| and its working file. If I put a prohibited file on my test server and
| try
| to download it with wget, I get a "ERROR 403: Forbidden". The problem > is
| that Squid allow me to download the mp3 (audio/mpeg) if I rename it to
| test.html. Wget shows that its mime type is text/html. I suppose Squid
| knows about mime types by looking on the extension. You should already
| have guessed that I want to block this kind of trick so any help will > be
| usefull.

| My second problem is about file size limit. I've checked
| reply_body_max_size directive in the squid.conf but I want it
| different
| depending on user. I saw in the archives that it was not implemented
| but
| maybe a patch is working?

Any ideas?
