I think you should use only apac he or only squid for this. For apache, you can easily set up <virtualhost> or <directory> with authentication needed (see AuthUserFile, require and satisfy directives), and proxied (see ProxyPass and PRoxyPassReverse) to other host/port. You can do this with squid ACL's, with and without squid behaving as http accelerator (iirc) using acl directives. -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
