RE: [squid-users] bypass proxy for local addresses

Or you can use a proxy autoconfig script served up by an apache
webserver!
Just needs java scripting enabled on the clients and it solved all my
issues
with 2 internal networks and many customer networks and a plethora of
squid
servers on different internet connections! There is even a simple perl
based
pac file tester available called pactester that solved the last few
issues I
had!

Be warned that several applications which make use of HTTP for
communication do not support a proxy script. So if you're planning on
only using this method you will run into issues with say Java. However
that said issuing the proxy script via DHCP is a nice clean way of
ensuring it only executes when your users are connected to your network.
