Hi, I've been reading through the archive looking for information about squid 2.6 and windows update caching. The FAQ mentions problems with range offsets but it's not really clear which versions of Squid this applies to.
All versions. The FAQ was the result of my experiments mid last year. With some tweaks made early his year since Vista came out.
We haven't done a intensive experiments with Vista yet.
I'm going to experiment, but if anyone has any positive or negative experience of Squid and windows update caching, I'd be really interested to hear from you. In case Squid cannot do windows update caching by its self, I'm also looking at integrating Update Accelerator (http://update-accelerator.advproxy.net/) script with standard squid 2.6 and wondered if anyone else had any experience of this. The update accelerator script is just a perl wrapper around wget which is configured as a Squid url_rewrite_program. It's not clear to me what this script is doing that Squid wouldn't do by its self.
Strange indeed. Amos -- Please use Squid 2.7.STABLE4 or 3.0.STABLE9
