You *could* use squid to proxy irc. You would need to modify squid's ACLs. You need a line similar to the following:
acl Safe_ports 6667 6668 # irc Then you would need an irc client which supports proxies using HTTP CONNECT. I know xchat does, and ive heard from friends mirc does. -- Dan Irwin - Systems Administrator Jackie's Wholesale Nurseries Pty Ltd Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: 07 3888 2481 Fax: 07 3888 2530 Postal: 10 Gleeson Road Burpengary Queensland 4505 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: http://www.jackies.com.au -----Original Message----- From: netb [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, 13 February 2002 8:22 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: RH firewall MY QUESTIO ABOUT squiD DO irc CHATS FUNCIOTN BEHIND THIS PROXY THANKS ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tony Zafiropoulos" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, February 11, 2002 4:11 PM Subject: Re: RH firewall > On Mon, 11 Feb 2002, C1tr1c 4c1d wrote: > > > Dear Senior, > > > > I've made my ipchains+squid on my rh72 box to be my future firewall.
