2006-08-07 Thread Jim Christy
Hi all, Wondering if anyone has an automated cache-flushing script which can be run as a cron job? I know the system calls to actually flush the cache, but my problem is that squid often takes a while to actually shut itself down. I want to flush the entire cache every day at midnight. I want

[squid-users] Squid / Apache as caching server for remote xml feeds

2006-08-02 Thread Jim Christy
