RE: [squid-users] Squid and Selecting Gateways

Thanks for the pointer Mark. Unfortunally the printed manual I have doesn't
explain the tcp_outgoing_address completely. It comments that it only
overrides the systems default gateway and doesn't mention you can use it
under acl's.

To complete the question, I found an example of tcp_outgoing_address under
acl's at http://devel.squid-cache.org/tosaddracl/example.html
