http/s exceptions using logical expressions

gnsec
I have created an exception for one user in my network where I want to allow some urls I specify to him and also 1 category of sites which is blocked by default.  Now I am using the "and" logical expression and that is applied to both, for all requests matching those urls and these categories of websites.  It cannot be and or , it's either both and or both or.  After using and, the firewall blocks any url i specify in the allow these urls and also block the category i enabled.  But why?  If I use or it will work, but the weird thing is it applies the exception with or to all users!  That  should not happen.  Can you please tell me why this is happening?

    That looks like a perfect suggestion, Dilandau.  It was clear that gnsec's logic couldn't work in his original exception, but I would think that your's might work depending on how the Astaro developer implemented logical operators.  Unless we can get an Astaro engineer to comment here, I think we have to take gnsec's experiments as an indication that you can't mix ANDs and ORs, just as he says.

    Cheers - Bob
