Hi Else, Thanks for your response. We have two proxy servers in our company. One is in Melbourne and the other one is in Sydney. For Melbourne proxy the parent proxy is Sydney. I am forwarding all the melbourne proxy requests to Sydney. But I still want to use my melbourne squid as both cache and proxy server. At the moment it is not caching anything on the melbourne proxy server. Sorry if I am wrong. I see lots of TCP_MISS entries because the Melbourne proxy server is not caching. How can I configure my Melbourne proxy to act as proxy/cache server and also redirect all the requests to sydney proxy. Thanks, Raj. --- Elsen Marc <elsen@xxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > > > Hi All, > > > > I am running squid proxy Version 2.5.STABLE7 on a > > solaris box.
