Dijjerizer redirector for squid

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi!
I don't know if that is the right place.
Anyway, I wrote a simple redirect_program for Squid to redirect dijjerizable urls to a dijjer server. Maybe someone is interested: you can find the description and the code here:

->	http://dijjer.org/wiki/SquiDJ


Dijjer is a distributed p2p web cache. If you want to insert/get a file to/from the dijer network, you usually have to start a dijjer instance, then direct your browser to http://127.0.0.1:9115/http://www.domain.com/path/to/file The dijjer server running on localhost will get the file from the distributed p2p cache.

If you have a LAN with many computers, it is difficult to install dijjer on every one, and most important, only a tiny part of the traffic will go to dijjer.

To increment the use of dijjer without having to maintain too copies of it and without the need to explain users anything, you can set up Squid so it will automatically redirect part of the traffic to a single dijjer instance on the same server squid runs. Then you will have to set the proxy option on client machine, if it isn't already set.

That makes debug and optimization very easy, increment dijjer use across your LAN, and maximize the bandwidth use (download speed will be less influenced by external servers upload bandwidth).
