Thanks for your help
The probleme was /var/run/samba/winbindd_privileged group owner...

So the log message was now : temporary disabling (Proxy Authentication

Any idea...
I will try different solution to resolve my problem but if you see

[squid-users] Redirect Web traffic From Linux GW to win32 squid.

2007-08-29 Thread Rogelio Sevilla Fernandez

Im working with WRT54GL and i want make somes whitelist for websites.
I tried to do that with iptables +webstr but i had a lot of problems
with hotmail. So i decided to install squid on a Win2k server and
redirect all the web traffic from the WRT54GL to my Win2kServer.

This is the scenario.


 INTERNET --- WRT54GL - --- Clients
--- Win2KServer


On Wrt54Gl i have a rule to make a DNAT all the webtraffic to  
Win2KServer to port

3128 except for the Win2kServer.

The squid on Win2kServer appear to be working ok. But when the clients  
open their browser, i get an error from squid. The squid access.log  
show:

error:invalid-request

And only show the IP of the WRT54GL and not the real IP of the Clients.


How cha i fix both problems?

That was my assessment as well: no object eviction?!?

So if your dataset it small enough, then varnish could
be as good as... a light webserver and a ramdisk. ;)
If you've got a huge amount of content, and want to
accelerate the hottest fraction, squid is still the best choice,
and can be tuned to resolve most of the issues the Varnish
authors cite. As features are added to Varnish, that might change.
We'll see. It's VCL language definately looks interesting.

Varnish shows a lot of promise.  I do believe that there's a good amount of 
trash talking in
those comments, especially given that squid would for sure have been designed 
differently if
it set out to be a fast accelerator, not a forward proxy with all of the bells 
and whistles.

Flickr can't use Varnish in its current form, for example, because object 
eviction isn't yet a feature.  :) 
Hence, we use squid.  It's working just fine for us. So in that case, I'll take 
the "1980" design that works,

Varnish was written from the ground up to be a high performance

Heh.. history navigation is a bit special in many browsers.. and
rightfully so as users want to really go back when using back, not have
the request resubmitted to the server. Any code relying on either
behaviour when using back will have a hard time as there is no
guarantees for either result..

It's not at all impossible IE behaves differently when seeing HTTP/1.0.
But it should not..

Yes, Squid is old. Parts of the code is in fact more thant 10 years old.

Yes, Squid is not primarily designed to be a reverse proxy. The main
focus for Squid has been Internet proxying. But reverse proxying is
within the scope of Squid and has gotten a lot more attention in the
last years.

Yes, there is aspects of the internal design of Squid which can be
significantly improved. Work is being done in that area, but it takes
time.

Is Squid better/worse than Varnish? Depends on your needs. They both
have their strengths and weaknesses. For some uses Varnish is a much
better fit, for some other uses it does not work at all.

Make sure your cache_effective_user is member of the group owning
the /var/run/samba/winbindd_privileged directory, and that you DO NOT

RE: [squid-users] Access denied - ACL problem

2007-08-29 Thread Edward Stafford
I got a bit further. I added web server host entry in my ACL:
acl servernameHost dstdomain servername

Then I added
http_access allow servernameHost before the deny_all.
That still didn't work. Then I thought It had something to do with the
Safe_Ports. The server accepts access on port 81, but it is not in the
safe ports list.

So I moved the servernameHost acl before the !Safe_ports acl and now I
get a new error.

=
While trying to retrieve the URL: http://servername:81/dashboard

The following error was encountered:

Unable to determine IP address from host name for yaserver 

The dnsserver returned:

Server Failure: The name server was unable to process this query. 

This means that:

 The cache was not able to resolve the hostname presented in the URL. 
 Check if the address is correct. 
=

Resolv.conf on my squid server does point to my internal DNS server and
I do have PTR and HOST records for servername.
Our dns is on a windows 2000 server with AD. Our squid proxy runs on a
linux box in the same subnet, but the local "servername" is on a
different subnet.

As I stated before, if I disable the proxy in the browser settings,
access works fine.
Also if I try to ping servername from the squid box, I get an unknown
host error.
But I can successfully ping servername.domain.local.

I know it might sound like a DNS issue, but I am only having the issue
when squid is added to the formula.

Any thoughts?

Hi Frank,

Frank Ruiz wrote:

Greetings,

So I am using local disk for my cache. This consists of a 500G SATA drive.

My cache size is 50G.

I tried using a queue size of Q1=72 and Q1=64, however it looks like I
am still I/O constrained with http requests taking up to 11 seconds.


Which operating system and squid version are you using diskd with?

With my limited experience, diskd is better suited for FreeBSD systems.
However, it's performance is more than satisfactory in Linux systems too.

Are you using SquidClient or SNMP to measure the http requests response 
time? Bandwidth saturation and alot of ACL filtering could also slow 
down your http response time. Posting your squid.conf may help.


Also how many users do you have and what is the hardware configuration 
of your Squid box?


What does the following squidclient output say:

squidclient mgr:5min | grep client




I am using UFS. Logging, and access time have been disabled.

I am now running at:
Q1=12 Q2=10


I am a little confused.

So now you are using Q1=12 Q2=10 for diskd? If you are, I think that 
they are too small a value.


If your Squid box is a busy machine, then disabling logging to 
access.log or cache.log may help to some extent.





Does anyone happen to have any suggestions?


You can try something like:

cache_dir diskd /cache 5 48 256 Q1=64 Q2=72

By the way, running a 50 GB cache may need alot of memory and a fast 
hard drive  too!


Hope it helps.


Thanking you...




Thanks!

Re: [squid-users] IE6 ignoring cache-control due to HTTP/1.0 header?

2007-08-29 Thread ToddWilliams

More info about that "subsequent request" -- it is a history.back()
javascript call.
But as I said, that fails when we use squid (goes into an infinite loop),
but works fine when we use a different proxy (such as Apache mod_proxy or
CCproxy) which sends HTTP/1.1 headers.

Trying IE7 isn't an option for us right now, so we're discussing internally
whether we can fix this with code or if we need to switch to a different
proxy.   It looks like IE6 is misbehaving here, but there doesn't seem to be
a way to fix it.

Why bother with Varnish - why not use Squid?

Varnish was written from the ground up to be a high performance
caching reverse proxy. Squid is a forward proxy that can be configured
as a reverse proxy. Besides - Squid is rather old and designed like
computer programs where supposed to be designed in 1980. Please see

not yet. But using cache_dir of the same size and settings (max object size)
than memory will have very similar behaviour.

If you expect the system to crash, you'll end up with old data in cache. If
you don't, you don't have to flush, only when shutting down.

setting up sibling relationship will do something similar, but (as above)
each object will be fetched when needed.

Hi

   I have a litle question, I'm working on a project to reduce the 
bandwidth consume, we are using for each client one traffic shape 
policy(128K almost all) , but even with this, one user conection 
(128K )will make the Squid sever use all the bandwitdh avalaible (4 
Mb) ?, If it does, I will use the Delay pools feature :)




Hi Juan,

Which software/hardware are you using to shape the bandwidth of your 
clients at 128kbps? Are you shaping traffic based on IP addresses?


Delay pools should definitely help you out in this matter.

Check out the FAQ at:

Thanking you...

[squid-users] Akamai-like CDN using squid and a DNS trick

2007-08-29 Thread Vicente Aguilar

Hi

I've written a brief success story about how we used squid and a DNS  
trick to solve a networking problem between ISPs that was affecting  
our webs' performance and public image.


Long story short: all the users of a particular ISP had problems  
accessing our pages because of a routing problem between that ISP and  
ours. We ended up installing a squid reverse-proxy on that ISP's  
datacenter, and redirecting all its users there by returning a  
different DNS response depending on the client's IP address. This  
method could be extended to use as many ISPs/proxies as needed,  
creating a homegrown, Akamai-like CDN.


The article is available here:

lan=english


Hope someone finds it useful. :)

Regards
