Re: [squid-users] How to receive on port 80, but forward to port 85 on Web Application Server?

I do not disagree with your comments, but I still have the task at
hand. Can you point me to some site that would give me the
settings/setup to configure squid to do this?

The only web applications we are running are the ones we write so if
there is an issue accessing itself, it's our fault. We're taking
precautions to not use absolute URL's and such...
