Squid configuration for rsync proxy

To allow RSYNC proxy via Squid, edit squid.conf file:

  1. add 873 to acl SSL_ports port list
  2. add 873 to acl Safe_ports port list
  3. if you want proxy without password, add host at which rsync is running to acl allowed_hosts list

An example:

acl SSL_ports port 443 563 873  # 873 - for rsync
acl Safe_ports port 873         # for rsync
acl allowed_hosts src 195.208.220.197/255.255.255.255 # trusted host
