I 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:
2010/11/11 18:04:49| store_swap_size = 0
2010/11/11 18:04:50| storeLateRelease: released 0 objects
2010/11/11 18:05:41| Squid is already running! Process ID 5458
I want to know that is there any way to check that how much size of squid cache directory is full? Normally when squid size will reach upto 2GB then I have to clean it.
Code: # cache_dir ufs /var/spool/squid 2000 16 256 I assign 2000 MB to the cache size. One month have been pass while squid is running but i am unable to know how to check the current status of my squid cache size

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.

what i need, I got two servers for about 4000 users and 300 servers and well the guy never setup dns caching right, so im redoing it. Now my goals
1) DNS cache 2) Transparent Squid Cache only 3) Load Balance - at switchlevel
Upgraded Hardrives to SSD 2x32gb each server 4gb of ram 2x Dell poweredge 850's - p4 2.8 (single cores) So any advise , pointers , expeirnces and best ways to do this being both server will do both dns caching and squid! Also is bind9 the best for this?? i seen stuff about DNSmasq what performs better( i dont need DHCP)
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?
One of our user inform me about some problems in viewing one site that he does not get fresh objects from site's server while site is updated everyday!! After some investigate and dig on headers I get, I found out in response headers that "date" field is for 2 or 3 last week!! 1- Does Squid cache "response headers" ?If so, when user send "If-none-match" or "if-modified-since" in request header the cached "response header" will be updated?
I'm trying to setup a Centos 5.6 Squid Proxy Server with Content Filtering & Antivirus Scanning Incoming HTTP Traffic from the Internet
I then proceeded to setup an configure the Proxy Server, i was able to test and confirm that Squid and Dansguardian Content Filter is working, however i dont know if Clamav is scanning HTTP traffic before it hits the client/server. Is there a way i can check if the Antivirus scanning is working.. is there some log file or real world test i can i can do to confirm that Clamav is scanning incoming traffic or even blocking potential viruses ??
Anyone who has squid proxy server with Clamav configured and its working can share there settings/setup with me and how they tested it ??
I am using squid to controlling access to the internet all is working fine expect one of the user who is using outside organization portal to connect internet. But whenever he tries to enter in the portal by typing (EXAMPLE)url. Permission denied error from squid occur.

I don't understand this error nor do I know how to solve the issue that is causing the error. Anyone care to comment?

I know JohnVV. "Install a supported version of Fedora, like Fedora 11". This is on a box that has all 11 releases of Fedora installed. It's a toy and I like to play around with it.
I was laughing about klackenfus's post with the ancient RH install, and then work has me dig up an old server that has been out of use for some time. It has some proprietary binaries installed that intentionally tries to hide files to prevent copying (and we are no longer paying for support or have install binaries), so a clean install is not preferable.
Basically it has been out of commission for so long, that the apt-get upgrade DL is larger than the /var partition (apt caches to /var/cache/apt/archives).
I can upgrade the bigger packages manually until I get under the threshold, but then I learn nothing new. So I'm curious if I can redirect the cache of apt to a specified folder either on the command line or via a config setting?
i was looking for a way to stop my menus taking a few seconds to load my icons when i first open them and found a few guides suggesting using the gtk-upate-icon-cache command, but with the any colour you like icon theme i'm using (stored in my home folder .icons directory) i kept getting a "gtk-update-icon-cache: The generated cache was invalid." fault i used the inbuilt facility in the acyl script to copy the icons to the usr/share/icons directory and tried the command again, this time using sudo gtk-update-icon-cache --force --ignore-theme-index /usr/share/icons/ACYL_Icon_Theme_0.8.1/ but i still get the same error. i tried with several of the custom icon themes i've installed and only 1 of the first 7 or 8 i tried successfully created the cache.
My squid server works fine in fedora 11 system . Is there any web like interface for admins to create,change,modify users of squid and to view their logs.

Is it possible to use one fast disk as a giant file cache?
I.e. automatically copying frequently accessed data to that one disk, and transparently redirecting reads and writes to that disk, so that other drives would only have be accessed occassionally.
(writes would have to be forwarded to the other disks after a while of course)
Advantages:
The other drives could be powered down most of the time; reducing power, heat, noise speed of the other drives would not matter much. cache disk could be solid state.
How can I set such a system up?
What OS supports these options? Is this possible at all using Windows or Linux?
Example:
There are 3 disks with 1 Tb each. most of the files are only accessed very rarely, but about 5% of each disk is used frequently.
Which files are used frequently may change over time.
A solid state disk with 150GB should cache the currently frequently accessed files, so that access time is faster and the drives can be put into power saving mode.
I use Ubuntu, and Google Chrome mostly. How can I kill these HTTP headers, so that my browser caches this data? I believe it is XHR. Here are the relevant HTTP response headers:Cache-Control:no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate Pragma:no-cache.I also have Firefox, is there a plugin or something I can use to not respect "no-cache"?
I have a desktop and laptop at home, both running the same flavour of Debian Testing. How can I configure apt on the laptop so that it first tries to download the packages from the desktop before going to the Internet?
I'd like to improve my computer's performance by storing files' system location (e.g.: /home/user/speech.odt) and HD position (head, sector, etc) and do the computer use that info from ram memory.I have a directory with several files and when I cd and ls it, it takes a while to the computer answer me. Plus, it would return immidiate find results.
I want to disable processor cache or in other words, want to read write data directly from RAM... Is there any way to make it possible? I am talking about on chip cache memory not any disk cache stuff.
