Hello, I'm using squid 2.5stable14 because I'm using websense as web filter. As far as I know, it only works with squid 2.5. I'm planning to replace Websense with DansGuardian in March, so I will be able to upgrade Squid. Does the new version of Squid solve my problem? Or I will also have to apply the patch Adrian Chadd suggested on the previous post? Is there any automatic process to apply the patch (like an script) or do I have to edit the configuration files by hand? To Elvar: yes,users are getting popup windows on their browsers. Thanks. -----Missatge original----- De: Amos Jeffries [mailto:squid3@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Enviat el: ds. 19/01/2008 02:24 Per a: Adrian Chadd A/c: Francisco Martinez Espadas; squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Tema: Re: winbindd: Exceeding 200 client connections, no idle connection found Please also use a more recent squid release. Currently supported releases are: 2.6stable17+ if you are running high-performance servers 3.0-stable1+ if you can.
