This is all new to me , as per subject , I must be missing a basic step?
have loaded two version of Squid , on 3 platforms
a native windows NT version based on Squid 2.5 STABLE 4
a cygwin versions running on a NT box with Squid 2.5 STABLE 10.
and Squid 2.5 STABLE 10. on Solaris 8
all seem to install and Squid seems loadup fine .
but i never see the expected cache effect that is desired
installed a sniffer to trace traffic between squid server and web
server , with browsers on different terminals configured to point
to the proxy , the browers do direct all FTP and HTTP
traffic/requests to the Squid server , but
I always see the same amount of traffic from the squid servers to
the web servers ( located at a different location across the WAN on
our network )
have used various browsers on various terminals , but never see the
expected cache ing of the traffic at the Squid server ,
all enteries in store.log indicate RELEASE -1 FFFFFFFF
all enteris in access.log show TCP_MISS
have included cache.log and squid.conf below from the sol 8
install (NOTE IP's have been changed, but there are no connection
issues )
any suggestions would be appriciated ?
