Hi all,
I am wondering if it is possible to make it such that when accessing
certain webpages, the connections goes through a proxy, and when
accessing others, the connections goes out directly to the internet.
In particular, since I am a graduate student living off campus, if I
need to use certain web services (for example, the Oxford English
Dictionary Online, American Mathematics Society's MathSciNet, access
to various scientific Journals), I have to go through the
university's proxy server, as I don't have a personal license to use
those services. The university proxy requires a login.
I don't want to pass all connections through the proxy if I can help
it, since it slows the connections down noticeably. So I am
wondering if there's a way to implement it such that connection
requests to certain websites will be sent through the university
proxy server while the remainder of the connections are unaffected.
Can this be done with some sort of squid-magic? Is there a way of
doing it transparently?
Thanks,
Willie
