Re: [squid-users] Squid is blocking access to some BBC news sites

[D & E Radel]

Hi folks
Its sorted now, D& E Radels solution worked.  Mark im afraid your 
solution still caused me a similar error.

Same solution, just a syntax error. "deny all" was in the wrong place 
(and I am not sure whether the lowercase F in "for" affects anything - 
Are Squid ACLs case sensitive?). Mark had the actual solution though.

Can anyone explain what "header_access X-Forwarded-For deny all" line 
actually does?

I think it simply stops Squid from passing your local private IP address 
through to the webserver. Instead it passes the external IP address of 
your network (or the Squid box itself's IP perhaps)?

Thanks for all your help

We're all here to give and receive help. I monitor this group mainly to
