I do not agree with you: acl proxyallow url_regex "/etc/squid.allow" acl proxydeny url_regex "/etc/squid.deny" and http_access allow proxyallow allowed_hosts http_access deny proxydeny http_access allow allowed_hosts http_access deny all In my squid file do the job just fine! The allow and deny files are all the tools you need. The keywords are flat ASCII and row based and give all the flexibility you need. I don't see the need for any extra software. Regards, Onno
