Re: [squid-users] transparent caching on solaris 8

If you want to transparently proxy more than one port then httpd_accel_port
should be set to virtual.

  httpd_accel_port virtual

If not, all requests will (should) be forwarded to the single specified port.

Now, I cannot say "virtual ports" have been tested much.. but the above is
how it is meant to work.
