[squid-users] SQUID Trasparent Proxy + HTTP Proxy on the same machine ?
Hi all,
can i have, on the same machine, a Trasparent Proxy and a Normal Proxy that do
the same work ? Ok...i want to avoit MASQUERADING for port 80 and want to
control all WEB traffic.
So...can i ?

[squid-users] Squid Proxy sizes
Hi all, I may be asked shortly to provide web proxy/caching solutions for some (for me) rather large Internet connections. 12-15000 people per site and the Internet lines are 10-20Mbit in size. I have run squid successfully on lines up to 2.5Mbit with about 2000 people using the servers running Linux (RedHat 6.2 7.3) and squid 2.4STABLE6. Will I be able to ramp up to the larger lines, and what sort of hardware/software combinations will I need? I have checked the FAQ and the sizing link and that doesn't go near the numbers I need to support. TIA. -- Cheers! (Relax...have a homebrew) Neil

[squid-users] squid and kqueue?
Hi all, does anyone know the status of Squid's ability to use kqueue on FreeBSD as of squid2.5s1? I've examined the commloops project on the squid dev site, but was unable to cleanly patch squid2.5s1 with the downloadable patch to enable kqueue support.

[squid-users] Question on multiple caches and recommended ram size.
I need a clear understanding of multiple caches. Is this desirable if I had 2 different hard drives to configure squid to use both? Is this done with squid.conf and then with squid -Z? I'm getting ready to order ram -I'm at 256MB- and I can go to either 1 gig or 2 gigs. My cache size is set at 25 gigs but in 3 days they have only consumed about a gig. I plan on adding more users. Finally, my hit rate is about 35%. Is that about normal? thanks Gary
Re: [squid-users] squid and kqueue?
James Wilkinson wrote: does anyone know the status of Squid's ability to use kqueue on FreeBSD as of squid2.5s1? kqueue is supported in the current development version of Squid only (what will become Squid-3.0). There has never been any plans to have kqueue supported in Squid-2.5, and there is no patches adding said support to Squid-2.5. I've examined the commloops project on the squid dev site, but was unable to cleanly patch squid2.5s1 with the downloadable patch to enable kqueue support. This is because the patch is for the development version of Squid at the time, which is significantly different from Squid-2.5. Searching for material on the topic returns documents mostly from '00/'01 and seems inconclusive with references to a problem with deferred reads. The deferred reads is rumored to be eleminated in the current development version, which makes life easier for kqueue, epoll and other kernel event mechanisms. Regards Henrik
Re: [squid-users] Question on multiple caches and recommended ram size.
Thanks, I think 1 gig of ram will probably suffice. My hit ratio is document hit rate. I was not sure where to find the byte rate in cache manager.

Hi on Guido Serassio's squid NT page (http://www.serassio.it/SquidNT.htm), he describes how to get the source code for his squid NT 2.3.STABLE5, as follows: Download the latest Squid 2.3 STABLE 5 tarball, the squid-2.3.STABLE5-NT patch from devel.squid-cache.org Apply squid-2.3.STABLE5-NT patch However, when I click on the patch link he supplies, I get a file that contains the following: This patch is generated from the nt-2_3 branch of s2_3 in squid3 Tue Mar 18 03:10:52 2003 GMT See http://devel.squid-cache.org/ Patch does not understand this.I assume I need to go to a CVS repository and issue a diff command in some way. I would appreciate someone telling me how to do this. thanks for your time Gary Price Intelligent Compression Technologies

[squid-users] Is it possible?
Dear Members Henrick , While accessing the internet from my client machine through a squid server to any remote server. i want to display the client machine ip rather than squid server ip. Is it possible? if yes tell me some good idea. if no how can i do it in other way. I will expect your reply. I have linux box which is having 2 ethernet card running in bridge mode In one card i have connected the Least line cable another one is connectd in the clinet machine(Nt). Squid server is Running in Linux Box I have enabled the Iptables like below iptables -A PREROUTING -t NAT -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 3128 I am accessing the internet thro NT box. When we checked the IP Address of the remote server it is showing the Linux box ip. Is there any other way to directly display the Client machine ip to the remote server. for checking purpose i have used www.maria.com it is showing the Linux box ip rather then NT box. Is there any possiblties available in squid. Kindly help me in this regard. Awaiting your reply with regards velu

Download the 2.5 version instead.
