All, I asked this question a while back. It seems that it's not possible. My suggested solution (although I haven't tried it yet) is to run an actual webserver on the machine and download the known-large-files (virus updates, etc...) as a cron job every day at 4am. Then we should be able to setup redirection rules in squid to point to our webserver rather than the live internet server. This is a little like re-inventing the wheel, but should work ok. It's on my list of things to do but way down near the bottom at the moment. Let me know if anyone comes up with a better solution.

[signed] Hi, I have set maximum_object_size to 4MB. But without increasing this value, I would like to put some objects greater than 4mb on cache, like, msn installation file. How do I put it on cache explicitily? If it can be done, what would be the best way to automate this task? Please give me an idea if anyone has done this. thanks in advance, Rajendra. -- --------------------- [ SECURITY NOTICE ] --------------------- To: squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For your security, rajendra@xxxxxxxxxxxxx digitally signed this message on 17 July 2006 at 09:45:45 UTC.
