RE: [squid-users] squid or squidguard for acls

Squidguard is a redirector, allowing things like the following, in
accelerator mode:

src theusers {
    ip 0.0.0.0 - 255.255.255.255
        )
rew get_local {
        s@.*www.website.com/lna@http://10.87.0.2/lna@i
        s@.*www.somesite.com/tws_inet@http://10.87.0.3/tws_inet@i
        }
acl {
    theusers {
        rewrite get_local
        pass all
    }

www.website.com/lna traffic goes to one server, www.website.com/tws_inet
points to another webserver. The end user thinks its one big webserver when
it's actually multiple back end servers.

In normal proxy mode a redirector can redirect users to an error page
whenever they attempt to reach a blacklisted site.

Subject: [squid-users] squid or squidguard for acls

Hi all, I see squid supporting all acls types that squidguard have, are
there any good reason to use squidguard for filtering purposes instead
of squid acls?

Regards.
