Re: [squid-users] "url_rewrite_access"-directive bypasses everything

This seems not to work.

I have the following directive:
acl ALLOWED_HOSTS src "/etc/squid/Allowed_hosts"
url_rewrite_access deny ALLOWED_HOSTS
url_rewrite_access allow all

In the file "/etc/squid/Allowed_hosts" I have the following entry:
10.xx.xx.xx/32

But on the Redirector-Logfile, I can see, that websites, called from
the host listed in the file "Allowed_hosts", are blocked. So this host
isn't bypassing the redirector.
Thanks.
