thanks for your replies, maybe some more details are called for.
The users reference localhost in their code which should point to webservers
running
locally on their machines.
I could add address exceptions in their browser but since I am using wpad
it kinda defeats the purpose. I could also put a couple of lines into the
wpad script
which would force the users to connect directly (to 127..0.0.1or
localhost)but as far as I know this isn't recommended.
Surely squid is smart enough to recognise the fact that when it get a
request for localhost it doesn't mean return it's own web pages ie
A user types in 127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/cachemgr.cgi it returns the cache manager
interface......
