Hi,

I'd like to use Varnish as nothing more than a basic Internet security
appliance, that is set it up with a whitelist of sites and direct all other
domains to a local page which will ask for authentication, then forward
along if passed. I'm trying to just get google.com and
wikipedia.orgworking as pass-through with the following VCL... and
I'm having trouble.
Eventually I'd like to implement caching, but I'd like to just get the
simple stuff going for now.

Thanks for any insight you can provide.
