Hi all A while ago someone on this list asked about using delay pools for his / her network. On asking for assistance I supplied my setup (see below), in the hope of helping them. #Delay Pools acl workdays time M T W H F A 07:00-19:30 #http_access allow staff workdays http_access allow staff acl ipaddress src "/etc/SQUID/staff.txt" acl type url_regex -i ftp .exe .com .mp3 .vqf .gz .rpm .rar .zip .avi .mpeg .msi .mpg .mpe .qt .ram .rm .raw .wav .mov .pdf . delay_pools 2 delay_class 1 2 delay_parameters 1 -1/-1 -1/-1 delay_access 1 allow ipaddress delay_class 2 2 delay_parameters 2 5000/150000 5000/120000 delay_access 2 allow workdays delay_access 2 deny !workdays delay_access 2 allow type Yesterday, someone else questioned my setup. Both are saying that my setup slowed their network. So obviously Im now wondering, if I have not made a mistake. Would someone be so kind as to over look my delay pool setup, and if possible share some tips / advice. Kind Regards and thanks in advance. Brent Clark
