Re: [squid-users] Q: How to set up squid for MSN messenger

OK... Thanks very much for helping me... I'm getting further!

I'm using squidguard to protect my son from all those *nasty* sites out there.

I've got it working now by putting a new rule into the squidGuard.conf to
allow any source to access *.passport.com

But it looked like the result of the previous "default" squidGuard rule was
not being interpreted as I expected by squid...

I was using a redirect in the default squidGuard rule to return http://...
etc.etc.
but squid was taking the bit before the : and looking that up in DNS. Hence
it was looking up http.matson.stc.com

Any clues?
