Aha, I already came to such a solution and noticed it works only in HTTP mode. Since I actually do not want to parse HTTP-specific information, I want to stay in TCP mode (but still use ACL with nbsrv). So I should stick with 1.4 for that purpose, right? Or does HTTP mode acts like TCP mode unless I actually use something HTTP-specific? In other words, will the above configuration (used in HTTP mode) actually try to parse HTTP headers (and waste cpu cycles for that)? Thanks.
