Happy new year... I'm (still) trying to allow access to different MIME types (http_reply_access) depending on an external_acl (an LDAP group lookup). I tried the trick to query the ACL in a http_access line and use the cached result in a http_reply_access line. That didn't work reliably. Perhaps the results sometimes expired from the cache exactly that moment when the web server's reply was processed.
Slow ACLs (like external_acl) are not queried in http_reply_access statements. But is there perhaps a patch to enable that lookups even for replies? I think someone explained to me that it's done like this because of potential problems with system resources (speed/memory/sockets). But I'd like to take the risk. So I'm looking for a patch - preferably one that works with Squid 2.5.9. :) Thanks already... Christoph -- Never trust a system administrator who carries a tie and suit.
