WHY?! this page has been requested several times I'm sure!. Isn't it supposed to get it from it's local cache?. It's fetching all cachable misses from the parent (which is the intent). It isn't caching them for some other reason. You may want to strip the comments out of your squid.conf and post it. Please find attached my squid.conf file. Moreover, in squid.conf, I have configured the following (as requested in the documentation): cache_effective_user squid cache_effective_group squid It launches as root and switches over to these. There are plenty of ways to see what the user id is. A 'ps au' should show you the user for each process. Just look for squid.

RE: [squid-users] Authenticate and 407 errors
Other than the http_port line being commented out, your squid.conf looks fine. It WAS uncommented when you tried to use the proxy, right? No its always been commented out. AFAIK squid had a default setting and this wasn't required. I will try using it anyway though. If so, I can give you two suggestions: 1) When you tried the ncsa_auth program from the command line, did you su to the user Squid runs as (ps aux will tell you)? If not, try that. Yeah I tried this and it authenticated fine, or at least it returned OK 2) You hinted at this, but didn't explicitly say it - did it work using the daytime acl? If not, check to see if a firewall on the Squid box (or elsewhere) is blocking access. The daytime acl worked fine. It was just with the ncsa_auth. Adam Thanks for the help, I think I am going to try upgrading to the latest version of squid because I have a version 2.5STABLE3 running on another machine and that works fine using ncsa_auth. Gareth

[squid-users] Analysing cache contents
Hi. How can I: a) find out what html files have been stored in my Squid cache? b) retreive those files from the cache so I can look at the contents? (I guess the answer to (b) could be use a browser, once I know the answer to (a), but is there a more direct method which allows me to just pull raw html files out of the cache directories, once I know where to look?) I tried the Squid FAQ, and found instructions on retreiving 'lost' file from the cache (q.6.20), but the answer says it applies only to Squid-1.1 I'm using 2.5stable3 Thanks, Antony -- Normal people think if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Re: [squid-users] peering
On my parent proxy however, I get constant 403's when the sibling tries to query it. I suspect it is a acl that I am missing, but I'm not sure what... The other peer needs to be allowed to access the server in http_access. If not they will be given 403 on attempt to access the cache, just as any other http client not allowed by http_access. Yup. Thanks Hendrik, I've seem to sort it out. Appart from a small glitch in the ACL, I seemed to have made a mistake with miss_access as well.

[squid-users] [announce] Squeezer - new version
Hello Squid Users! I have the pleasure to announce new version of Squeezer - logfile analysis script. This is brand new version of this utility after 4 years. Squeezer gathers information from access.log about Squid's performance: hits, misses, traffic volume and - most important - traffic speed from different class of sources (original servers, peers, internal cache). You could find out what is slowing down transfer and report what benefits on speed You have using Squid. You could also optimize relations with Your peers. I have completely rewritten this utility. The reports have new, clear look. The internal data structures are similar to those Andrew Fresh did in his rewrite. I have kept most of features, but added one: the diagnostic messages, which appear at the end of report. This should help you to find bottlenecks in your installation. The script is Open Source GPL, so feel free to use it, test it, find bugs and tell Your opinion, flames, proposals of features to me. Squeezer is available from: http://strony.wp.pl/wp/maciej_kozinski/squeezer.html Regards, Maciej
RE: [squid-users] Running squid -k reconfigure frequently
I have been running Squid versions 2.4 STABLE6 - 2.5 STABLE2 and I have a system that also uses reconfigure frequently to update blocking lists automatically for squidGuard. I generally use a 5 minute interval scheduled in cron but I use a token file that is checked for before I issue a reconfigure. That is, reconfigure is only called if changes have been made (which is infrequent, but could occur at any time). I have found this system to work quite well for our systems. During testing, I have even gone down to once a minute, but again, reconfigure will only be triggered if it is required. There is a slight disruption to service during a reconfigure, but it is negligible and generally unnoticeable by end-users in my experience.
