[squid-users] For caching media

2007-08-25 Thread squid learner
Hi! 
All gru
Here  using squid for cahing media files like films
and clips is imposible 
As some other cache stuff is there specially for media

Is it possible to use that in same squid box and 
give some ? in squid.conf to go and check media from
there if there is 

Did any one have any past experience 

I have 50 clients they are adict of downloading films 
and it sucks

You need to look at the HTTP requests and replies - begin by
enabling MIME logging. Then you need to learn a little about how
refresh_patterns and cache (which was once no_cache) work in
limiting what can and can't be cached.

Then there's probably some modifications that Squid needs - specifically
floating about supporting caching partial Range Request responses.

Funny you should mention it, I'm building a commercial Squid appliance right
at the moment which, amongst other things (like out of the box functional
interception/WCCPv2 support, anti-spyware/malware filtering, black/whitelists,
web-based User/ACL management, some useful reporting output, etc.) will
include stuff to begin caching sites like Youtube and Google Maps/Earth.
Its tricky to do right and things will need changing/adapting over time.
What worked yesterday might not work so well tomorrow..
