squid - loading, checking and purging

[Sir June <sir_june@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I just joined this mailing list and i'd like to get insights on how to do the following?

1)  how to check if an object or a URL  is in the squid cache? 

2)  how to purge an object or a URL from the squid cache?

3)  if i have a long list (1000 items)  of objects/url that i want to load into the cache, how do i load it?


thanks,
sirjune
