Re: [squid-users] issue getting replay_body_max_size to work with an external acl

oops wrong email heres what i wrote in replay from my other email,
sorry to all for the mixup

HI, thanks for the quick response, i have a line like the one you
mentioned above my replay_body.. line, however further above that line
i have the following line aswell "hhtp_reply_access deny
differentacl"

could this be causing a confliction error or something like that, if
not then i have the lines you suggested in place and still dont get a
restriction working

Thanks
Cam

ps.i hope im replaying to this the correct way << nope
