You do need two different ports regardless of the http_access rules. One 
for the forward/explicit proxy traffic and one for the intercept/tproxy 
traffic. The TCP IP:port details for each of those "modes" is given in 
completely different ways and the HTTP message syntax is also different 
so the *cannot* be delivered to the same ports.


A whitelist generally is formed from two lines, one allowing and one 
denying everything else.

If 'everything else' is defined as just the stuff arriving in one 
specific port you get this:

  http_port 3128
  http_port 3129 intercept

  acl portX myportname 3129

  http_access allow portX whitelist
  http_access deny portX

  http_access deny !login
  ...
