[ILUG] Squid quickie.....

[Fergus Donohue]

Hi Alan,

In squid.conf you should have something like the following denying access to
ports other than the ones listed.The solution is to add 88 to this list.

Fergus.

acl Safe_ports port 21 70 80 97 220 443 447 457 563 1025-65535
acl Safe_ports port 280         # http-mgmt
acl Safe_ports port 488         # gss-http
acl Safe_ports port 591         # filemaker
acl Safe_ports port 777         # multiling http
acl Safe_ports port 81 82 90 210 322
http_access deny !Safe_ports
