RE: [squid-users] How do I allow access to a specific URL:port_number

If you are using this as an accelerator, try this in the squid.conf:

acl SAFE_ports port 10020 #random port
http_port 10020 accel vhost vport defaultsite=www.myisp.com
cache_peer [IP of website] parent 10020 0 no-query originserver
name=RPServ
acl ranport myport 10020
cache_peer_access httpsWeb deny ranport
cache_peer_access RPServ allow ranport ourWebSite

Unless you are using a parent cache, this will have no effect.

Unless you have modified the line...

Safe_ports port 1025-65535 # unregistered ports

...this is redundant.

Supply more details (your squid.conf without comments, the real URL used

to access the SPAM page), or hit up the FAQ
(http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/SquidAcl).
