I'm using squid-2.5.STABLE1-2 in a small LAN and ymessenger is blocked by default in it conf file. Not sure if ymessenger uses other ports to go out but if I want to allow ymessenger for client pcs, i enable access to port 5050 (scs.yahoo.com:5050) via "acl messenger_port port 5050" and "http_access allow messenger_port" option in squid.conf. hth. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
