RE: [squid-users] Ignore requests from certain hosts in access_log

Wow, I still can't seem to get this working! I can't figure out what I am doing wrong:

# Put the load balancers in an ACL so we can ignore requests (health checks) from them
acl loadbalancers src 172.26.100.136/255.255.255.255
acl loadbalancers src 172.26.100.137/255.255.255.255

# We want to append the X-Forwarded-For header
follow_x_forwarded_for allow loadbalancers
log_uses_indirect_client on
acl_uses_indirect_client on

# Define Logging (do not log loadbalancer health checks)
access_log /var/log/squid/access.log squid
log_access deny loadbalancers
coredump_dir /var/spool/squid
pid_filename /var/run/squid.pid
httpd_suppress_version_string on
shutdown_lifetime 5 seconds
# We don't cache, so there is no need to waste disk I/O on cache logging
cache_store_log none

These changes aren't suppressing any logs:

Health checks still show up:

1269265701.388 0 172.26.100.136 TCP_DENIED/400 2570 GET error:invalid-request - NONE/- text/html
1269265703.009 0 172.26.100.137 TCP_DENIED/400 2570 GET error:invalid-request - NONE/- text/html
1269265706.389 0 172.26.100.136 TCP_DENIED/400 2570 GET error:invalid-request - NONE/- text/html
1269265708.010 0 172.26.100.137 TCP_DENIED/400 2570 GET error:invalid-request - NONE/- text/html

.. as well as normal traffic using X-Forwarded-For.

What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks,

Josh

Yes.

Gah. Stupid me not reading that right earlier.

Means: deny all requests that are NOT loadbalancers.

You are wanting:
   log_access deny loadbalancers

So sorry.
