Hi All, a small success: I have set a an apache2.2 server as a proxy without caching as a parent proxy to my squid. I pass my youtube video clips through this parent. The apache is on the same machine as the squid. Using the mod_header module in apache, I cleaned out all the worrisome headers in the the youtube clips and now squid caches them and produces hits. The only outstanding issue is youtube serves videos from random servers. I will therefore have to implement a redirection script so that if a video clip has already been cached, I will pick that one. I hope to work on that over the weekend. I sometimes get about 10% traffic to youtube so if I can get a descent HIT rate it will be significant to the overall performance of my squid. Thanks for the hand-holding, Henrik.
