RE: [squid-users] Squid Server Accelerator + iptables

Hi

We are using Squid in accelerator mode to lessen the load on our backend
web server. Here's the scenario:

--Box A is Squid
--Box B is Web Server

On Box A, I need to allow outside access to port 80 (configured for
Squid). Since Box A and Box B are talking to one another "behind the
scenes", how do I need to setup the rules to allow them to communicate?

On Box B, I would imagine I just need to configure the machine to listen
to requests on port 80 only from Box A. Does that seem correct?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
