Sir,

I have visited your web-site for squid configuration reference. It's really helpful for me. Because i'm new to squid. Also i'm having a doubt regarding squid. The main purpose of the squid is load-balancing & security which hides our webserver from outside world. I'm going to put a two web server behind my squid. Where can I mention my web servers in squid configuration. and how I can test that my squid is refering my two servers if it's not having the cache. Please let me to know about it. I'm using squid 2 as my reverse proxy and Apache as my web servers with platform RHEL 4 u 4. Thanking you,

With Thanks & Regards, -- HARI NARAYANAN.S SOLUTION CENTRE, HO-MARKETING, HCL INFOSYSTEMS, HO, SECTOR-11, NOIDA.

Which article(s) are you referring to? I know I wrote a little bit about Squid a long time ago now (c. issue 80 or so). I'm hoping there's been more since then in LG, yet you fail to mention this rather crucial aspect to your HTML (grr!) email.

You don't mention webservers at all. Just point your browser to either squid cache. Can you be more specific though as to what it is you're really trying to do? Oh, and please send any future emails (here, or in general) as plain text.
