But, Just for the time waster I thought I'd see where that option came from. It appears to be a RedHat/FedoraCore addition to their release of 2.5STABLE3, and carried into the 2.6 by FC as recently as: Fedora Core 6 Update: squid-2.6.STABLE6-1.fc6 Date: Tue, 12 Dec 2006 11:16:32 -0500 If you are in fact using the FC/RH package you will need to contact them first for support. The bugs on this are: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=72896 http://www.squid-cache.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=435 The patch they seem to be using is at: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=121905 Henrik, their discussions about killing select match some that I recall reading about in dev once. I'm not sure myself if they were ever applied to 2.6/3.0 but it may be time to check #435 and see if its still valid given the patch RH have come up with. Amos
