[squid-users] Parent cache and ACL-s

Hi!

I have a couple of child squid-s at different organizations, which are
not maintained by me, but i maintain the parent cache for all those
squids.

I had a request to deny access to certain pages. I set up the following:

acl deniedpage dstdomain .xxxx.com
acl onecache src 192.168.51.1/32
acl othercache src 192.168.52.1/32

http_access deny deniedpage
http_access allow onecache
http_access allow othercache

This setup causes the parent cache to write to the log TCP_DENIED/403,
but the pages are accessable for the clients behind the child caches.

I tried to add access for one certain machine to the parent cache just
to test the setup, which had no squid, but i set up directly the proxy
setting in the browser. The effect was what i was looking for, it
correctly denied the requests.

My question is, why doesn't this work for the child caches ?

Best regards,

Zelin
