Hi all, |
2 |
I am wondering if it is possible to make it such that when accessing |
3 |
certain webpages, the connections goes through a proxy, and when |
4 |
accessing others, the connections goes out directly to the internet. |
5 |
|
6 |
In particular, since I am a graduate student living off campus, if I |
7 |
need to use certain web services (for example, the Oxford English |
8 |
Dictionary Online, American Mathematics Society's MathSciNet, access |
9 |
to various scientific Journals), I have to go through the |
10 |
university's proxy server, as I don't have a personal license to use |
11 |
those services. The university proxy requires a login. |
12 |
|
13 |
I don't want to pass all connections through the proxy if I can help |
14 |
it, since it slows the connections down noticeably. So I am |
15 |
wondering if there's a way to implement it such that connection |
16 |
requests to certain websites will be sent through the university |
17 |
proxy server while the remainder of the connections are unaffected. |
18 |
|
19 |
Can this be done with some sort of squid-magic? Is there a way of |
20 |
doing it transparently? |
21 |
|
22 |
Thanks, |
23 |

It takes an uncommon mind to think of these things. |
