Re: [squid-users] RE:Localhost

hello,

i have noticed this behavior also and I have this solution:

Add this to PAC/WPAD script to get browsers connecting to localhost
directly:

if (localHostOrDomainIs(host, "localhost.localdomain")) return "DIRECT";

If you want to prevent people accessing your web server on cache machine
pretending they use localhost add these lines:

acl localserver dst 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255
http_access deny localserver

This helps when you have some access control in web server that allows
acces to cachemgr.cgi only from localhost.
