Sir Chris Robertson
Thankyou very much
It is working excellent
For this i search nearly 50 forums and nearly 10
months i was struggling
Thanks
Is it possible to cache (store) media songs and
movies
Glad to hear it's working for you.
That depends on how the songs and movies are
delivered. If they are
just web objects, and the cacheability engine
(http://www.ircache.net/cgi-bin/cacheability.py)
labels them as
cacheable, then yes. You might have to adjust your
maximum_object_size
(in squid.conf) as the default is somewhere around
4MB. If they are
streamed... I don't think such a thing is likely.

Thanks again
and a small informaition i need
as you see i give weight=1
to all peers
So if i want to give pref to some did i change it
to weight=3 for to be use more
then weight=2 next
and weight=1 for least
some places i saw the weight=70 or like this (did this
forward 70 req then go to weight=50
Weight doesn't do what you think it does. From the old docs:
If more than one cache server has an object (based on the result of an
ICP query), Squid decides which cache to get the data from the cache
that responded fastest. If you want to prefer one cache over another,
you can add a weight value to the preferred cache's config line. Larger
values are preferred. Squid times how long each ICP request takes (in
milliseconds), and divides the time by the weight value, using the cache
with the smallest result. Your weight value should thus not be an
unreasonable value.
If you want to favor one cache_peer parent over an other, I think you
have to utilize carp-load-factor instead of round-robin, which likely
will require recompiling Squid. Run "squid -v" and look for --enable-carp.
