Re: [squid-users] tcp_outgoing_address mixes addresses

Hi,

I was just wondering if anyone has come up with a solution or any ideas
the the problem I posted on December 1.

Is it possible it's a bug, just a problem with my configuration or was
squid never meant to do this? Any help would be much appreciated as it's
preventing us from supporting one our our customers.

Thanks.
