The following might be of interest.. -bash-3.00$ less /usr/src/squid/helpers/external_acl/session/squid_session.8 squid_session(8) squid_session(8) NAME squid_session - Squid session tracking external acl group helper SYNOPSIS squid_session [-t idle_timeout] [-b dbpath] [-a] DESCRIPTION This helper maintains a concept of sessions by monitoring requests and timing out sessions if no requests have been seen for the idle timeout timer. Intended use is for displaying "terms of use" pages, ad popups etc. [SNIP] I'm not certain if the helper is included with Squid 3 source, but there is no reason the helper wouldn't work with Squid 3.
