Thans Jim!

Thanks to your reply! I checked my /etc/services file and find that 
webcache        3128/tcp                        # WWW caching service
webcache        3128/udp                        # WWW caching service
webcache        8080/tcp                        # WWW caching service
webcache        8080/udp                        # WWW caching service

is it quite strange that webcache listens to both 3128 and 8080 ?
However only 3128 is the port webcache really listens to.

Anyway, I tried http://192.168.0.50:3128/hello. This time, I am not
refused but i got a blank page. http://192.168.0.50:3128/usage
neither. But http://192.168.0.50:3128/jj works which redirects to your
homepage. 

Any idea why? 

Tom
