Hi there, I'm trying to access my proxy from my job. Some configurations were made but I'm not sure about the acl configurations for solve this error message:
" While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.google.com/ The following error was encountered: Access Denied. Access control configuration prevents your request from being allowed at this time. Please contact your service provider if you feel this is incorrect. " Could somebody help me for this configuration? Any information I missed to paste here? Meanwhile I'm gonna look for docs throught out the internet.
