Think about the following.
One of our customer has a very big Proxy installation with load balancing for
several proxies. All of the proxies must have the same configuration to be high
available.

These proxies are used by several customers connected over a corporate network.
The customers can decied to use several different access control features.

E.g. user management, positiv and negativ URL lists based on customers networks
or groups ob people, filtering via smartfilter, use of online virus scanning.

Based on usage a program generates different access control lists for the shared
configuration files.
Another script distributes the configuration files to all proxies and restarts
all changed programm installations.

At the moment i try to generate a minimal set of acl lists. Large but a very low
number of acls and access rules.

Best regards,

Stephan
