I have a proxy server on a multi-homed network. The clients on one of the lans use this proxy to get to the other lan. However, the other lan uses another proxy to get out onto the net. What I am trying to do is have my pac file say use the first proxy to get to the other network and the other proxy to get through to the internet. Hoe can I do that, or is it possible?
 
Heya,

Can you not just configure the multihomed proxy to use the second proxy as an upstream proxy?

I know in squid you add a line similar to:

cache_peer 10.0.0.1 parent 3128 3130

No idea how you would get your pac file to do it though...

Cheers.
 
You would probably need to add a line like:

isInNet(host,"x.x.x.x","255.255.255.0")
return "PROXY x.x.x.x:8080";

This should route any requests from network specified to the proxy server.

Hope this helps

Simon.
