a useful set of refresh_patterns for squid. there was one typo ("*." rather than ".*") in the first regexp, and three of the regexps could be re-written in a more generic form, so that they're not tied to particular versions of the service packs. also, a literal "." should always be written as "\." in a regexp, otherwise it matches *any* character. # refresh patterns to enable caching of MS windows update refresh_pattern http://.*\.windowsupdate\.microsoft\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims refresh_pattern http://office\.microsoft\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims refresh_pattern http://windowsupdate\.microsoft\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims # the next two can be rewritten as one regexp, which should also match other # SP versions. #refresh_pattern http://wxpsp2\.microsoft\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims #refresh_pattern http://xpsp1\.microsoft\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims refresh_pattern http://w?xpsp[0-9]\.microsoft\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims # ditto for the next one. #refresh_pattern http://w2ksp4\.microsoft\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims refresh_pattern http://w2ksp[0-9]\.microsoft\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims refresh_pattern http://download\.microsoft\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims # and some other windows updaters refresh_pattern http://download\.macromedia\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims refresh_pattern ftp://ftp\.nai\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims refresh_pattern http://ftp\.software\.ibm\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims craig -- craig sanders <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The next time you vote, remember that "Regime change begins at home" -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
