    I, love your proxy. But I have a problem with it: I set up the config so that bblocked should connect over a proxy. It won´t work! I tried it on my local LAMP installation and on my root server. On my root server I tried it with two differnt Proxys (Squid and Privoxy). I temporally opened the Privoxy for all, and set my root-server-ip in firefox as proxy (as test). The Proxy works great. Only in bblocked: When someone request a side nothing happens, after a while the message "The web site you requested could not be found." appears. I tried it with encypted urls and without.

  2. So did you configure the external proxy port with the correct IP address?

    There are a few things that could be the source of the problem. You didn't configure the external proxy IP/port correctly, or there are some firewall issues with one of the servers, or the bblocked server doesn't allow connections to external servers.

    None of these are problems with bblocked, I've tested it with several different HTTP proxies as well as setup my own proxy server to test with and haven't been able to duplicate this error. So I am very confident that it is merely a configuration error on your part.

    Be glad to help out with setting up the configs if you post them.
