ProxyPass

Despite the name, ProxyPass has nothing to do with the Squid proxy and is actually an Apache directive designed to allow a given URL on your server to return the content of some other webserver - either internal (behind your SME) or external.

Customizing Squid

Bypass the Proxy Server Without Disabling Your Transparent Proxy

     mkdir -p /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/rc.d/init.d/masq
     cd /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/rc.d/init.d/masq
     wget -O 35transproxy http://bugs.contribs.org/attachment.cgi?id=1191
     wget -O 90adjustTransProxy http://bugs.contribs.org/attachment.cgi?id=1192
     config setprop squid BypassProxyTo a.b.c.d
     expand-template /etc/rc.d/init.d/masq
     service masq restart

Replace a.b.c.d with the IP or network address for which you wish to bypass the proxy server.
Use config setprop squid BypassProxyFrom a.b.c.d to configure a specific local host or network that should bypass the proxy server
Note that 'signal-event remoteaccess-update' does not seem to completely rebuild /etc/rc.d/init.d/masq
Be sure to check the bug for changes to the attachments: http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2374)

Disable squid proxy bypass using:

config delprop squid BypassProxyFrom
config delprop squid BypassProxyTo
expand-template /etc/rc.d/init.d/masq
service masq restart
