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

Hi folks

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

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

Thanks for all your help

Jason
