Initially I did it that way, being used to the BSDs working in the same fashion, but I changed it back simply due to the documentation recommending an exact copy. I think you're right though, clean config for the win ;) Paul Cocker IT Systems Administrator IT Security Officer 01628 81(6647) TNT Post (Doordrop Media) Ltd. 1 Globeside Business Park Fieldhouse Lane Marlow Bucks SL7 1HY -----Original Message----- From: Henrik Nordstrom [mailto:henrik@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 20 September 2007 12:37 To: Paul Cocker Cc: squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: Java authentication under SquidNT2.6STABLE14using NTLM On tor, 2007-09-20 at 12:33 +0100, Paul Cocker wrote: > Many thanks, I guess I'll move us to STABLE 16.

You can reuse your old configuration just fine. The reordering is just to make sure the order the directives is listed matches the order they depend on each other so you don't have to move things around to make them work.. Note: Once you have a working configuration it's recommended you clean if from all the documentation. Much easier to maintain that way, and you'll always have current documentaiton in squid.conf.default. egrep -v "^#|^$" squid.conf >squid.conf.clean edit squid.conf.clean adding your own comments explaining why things is set up the way they are mv squid.conf.clean squid.conf Regards Henrik TNT Post is the trading name for TNT Post UK Ltd (company number: 04417047), TNT Post (Doordrop Media) Ltd (00613278), TNT Post Scotland Ltd (05695897),TNT Post North Ltd (05701709) and TNT Post South West Ltd (05983401).
