[squid-users] Fwd: http get requests to squid with relative path

[Gianluca Bergamo]

Hi Amos,

Thank you for the support.
This is my squid.conf
http://pastebin.com/hNmnck27

We use squid as external access to hosts services (port 80) that are in a
vpn, so this should be the classical use of a reverse proxy.

What do you think?
Thank you.

Gian
