I'm using squid as a proxy in our organization. My problem is whenever the squid cache folder size exceeds 3 GB our proxy server starts to hang. Is there a way to write a script that it will automatically delete the squid cash when it exceeds the 3GB limit.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently finished installing Squid 3.1.9 and I think I've done installing correctly with its feature of minor configuration changes. It accepted requests on port 3128 and created and the created some numerical or binary (I guess) files in /usr/local/squid/var/logs, My problem is how can I fully verify if the cache is really storing Internet Files? I've read some forums in the Internet replied to me to try the command: cat /usr/local/squid/var/logs/cache.logSo I did tried it and it gives me this output:

I have installed debian to run Squid cache as a caching proxy.
Ive been bashing away now for 2 days and i have managed to install squid (i first tried manually, but that did not work so i used synaptic software packager to install it (from Administration menu)
That went well, thereafter i installed webamin to work with squid in a GUI
I have managed to start squid and added my range of IP addresses to the ACL list
I have added the proxy restriction too.
Now, i tried to test it.
I opened Iceweasel Web browser (on the same machine) and setit to use the Proxy server: localhost and port:3128
That works fine.
But when i try to change the proxy setting to my machines ip (where squid is installed) :
Proxy server: 10.0.0.35 and port:3128
That does not work.
Am i missing something, please help
I then tried to set another windows PC on the network to:
Proxy server: 10.0.0.35 and port:3128
That also does not work.
I also edited the conf file to http_access allow all, but i do not know if i have doen it correctly, but maybe there is another problem?
I am administrating a lab in a university and every semester we need to delete all the home folders of the accounts for the next semester. I would like to make a bash script that does this automatically and having trouble with it. Note that I am writing my very first bash script. What I need to do is make a script to delete the following:
Delete everything in /home/$exp$num/$dir
when "exp" could be either "rt", "ic" or "sp".
"num" could run from 1(single digit) to 45 and dir is "profile" and "work".
This is what I tried to write:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
cd /home
for exp in "rt ic sp"
do
[code]....
What seems to be the problem is the reading of "$exp$num" as a joint expression.

View 3 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to configure a cron script to update the packages in /var/cache/apt-cacher/packages? When a client machine updates a package, apt-cacher checks that it's cached package is up-to-date, and downloads a new version if it is not.
I'd like apt-cacher to check it's cached packages every night and download any updated ones, on the premise that since it exists in the apt-cacher cache, someone has that package installed and is going to want to update it. Is this possible? Does apt-cacher do this anyway, and I haven't noticed?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have just installed squid and sarg, both are working well. I cannot get squid to start when the machine boots. I installed webmin and configured the setup through the webmin interface where I checked the "start at boot option". I think the problem is that my network card responsible for the web connection is wireless so when squid tries to load during boot it is trying before the Wireless card is up and so it fails. I have tried multiple methods of adding a script to the "dispatcher.d" folder in "NetworkManager" to load squid after wlan0 is up but all have failed to bring up the squid proxy without my interaction. I have not found any two sites that describe the syntax for "dispatcher.d" alike so I may have the command wrong but I have no what to do.

View 2 Replies View RelatedDoes squid automatically split bandwidth between connected clients? I'm wondering if someone was downloading a lot of data and someone else connected whether it would split the access 50:50 between them? I have 1 user that is using a lot of bandwidth but the server doesn't seem to split it up between all connected clients so others are receiving slow access. I don't have this client's IP address but I do have ncsa auth connected. Will delay_pools work with an ncsa username?
