[squid-users] Re: rsync redhat-8.0

I never use rsync or rsh before, so not much knowledge I can share about it.
However, since (as you mentioned) rsh is using TCP port 873, you can add
port access list in your Squid configuration. Pretty much similar as this :

acl your-port-acl-name port 873
http_access deny !your-port-acl-name

Since these remote applications (rsync and rsh) might become a security
concern (e.g. non-authorized user abusing it), you should also review other
access list in your Squid configuration.
