Re: [squid-users] Squid in accelerator mode

(See attached file: squid.conf)

I am trying to link to my accelerated site
When I link to its address I want to view the cached one through squid
How do I do that
All I get is access_denied when I go to port 80 on the squid servers

According to your config file you are trying to do IP based virtual
hosting but haven't specified a redirector that can map the virtual
IP addresses to the site names so Squid won't know where to send the
requests.

Probably you do not really want to do IP based virtual hosting but
name based virtual hosting.

Recommended changes:

From:
  httpd_accel_host virtual
To:
  httpd_accel_host your.primary.web.site
  httpd_accel_uses_host_header on
Reason:
  This is the proper setup for name based virtual hosting

From:
  http_access allow all
To:
  acl my_servers dst ip.of.your.server1 ip.of.your.server2 ...
  acl HTTP protocol HTTP
  acl port80 port 80
  http_access allow HTTP port80 my_servers
  http_access deny all
Reason:
  You need to have good access controls, or else your proxy will be
wide open to the world for any use, not only to access your servers.
