thanks Amos #allow special URL paths acl special_url url_regex "/usr/local/squid/etc/urlspecial.txt" http_access allow special_url # #deny MIME types acl mimetype rep_mime_type "/usr/local/squid/etc/mimedeny.txt" http_reply_access allow special_url http_reply_access deny mimetype
the reason why i added this line http_reply_access allow special_url in my mime lines is because http://updater.maxon.net/server_test <http://updater.maxon.net/server_test.*> wants to download an octet stream and it was keep on denying it On Sun, 19 Jan 2020 at 09:23, Amos Jeffries <squ...@treenet.co.nz> wrote: > On 18/01/20 3:51 am, robert k Wild wrote: > > smashed it - > > > > acl special_url url_regex ^http://updater.maxon.net/server_test.* > > http_access allow special_url > > > > It should work without the anchor and suffix.
