Has any recent consideration been given to providing the ability to include an external file into the "squid.conf" configuration, similar to the #include in cpp or the 'include' statement in BIND? http://triton.process.com/bind-docs/include.html I've explored the possibility of generating "squid.conf" via M4 or cpp, but making the existing comment lines fully compatible with a pre-processor would require significant effort. Basically, I have a half dozen caches which are all 99% identical, each one has a unique visible hostname, listen address, and tcp_outgoing_address. Right now I keep all of the servers in sync manually, but it'd be great to be able to push out a standard configuration and just 'include' the appropriate host-specific settings. I do this today with BIND servers, and it saves no end of headaches. Kevin Kadow
