Thanks for all of the great replies. There is lots of information to digest. I appreciate all of the suggestions. But, Before I got any of these replies, I went ahead and made modifications to my squid.conf to match an example I found on the internet here is my current running squid.conf http_port 3128 icp_port 0 acl QUERY urlpath_regex cgi-bin \? no_cache deny QUERY cache_mem 16 MB cache_dir ufs /cache 500000 256 256 redirect_rewrites_host_header off cache_replacement_policy lru acl localnet src 10.60.0.0/255.255.0.0 acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255 acl Safe_ports port 80 443 210 119 70 21 1025-65535 acl CONNECT method CONNECT acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 http_access allow localnet http_access allow localhost http_access deny !Safe_ports http_access deny CONNECT http_access deny all log_icp_queries off This one seems to be caching. I can refresh webmin system info every few hours and see that /cache is growing in space used. Although, very slowly. Amos Jeffries & tookers; I've taken the working squid.conf (above), and applied your suggestions to it (below). Please review this squid.conf (below) and make suggestions to it before I put it into production. http_port 3128 icp_port 0 no_cache deny QUERY cache_mem 512 MB maximum_object_size_in_memory 2048 KB maximum_object_size 1 GB cache_dir ufs /cache 500000 256 256 redirect_rewrites_host_header off cache_replacement_policy lru acl QUERY urlpath_regex cgi-bin \? acl all src all acl localnet src 10.60.0.0/255.255.0.0 acl localhost src 127.0.0.1 acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8 0.0.0.0/8 acl Safe_ports port 80 443 210 119 70 21 1025-65535 acl CONNECT method CONNECT http_access allow localnet http_access allow localhost http_access deny !Safe_ports http_access deny CONNECT http_access deny all icp_access allow our_networks icp_access allow localhost icp_access deny all refresh_pattern \.jpg$ 3600 50% 60 ignore-reload refresh_pattern \.gif$ 3600 50% 60 ignore-reload refresh_pattern \.css$ 3600 50% 60 ignore-reload refresh_pattern \.js$ 3600 50% 60 ignore-reload refresh_pattern ^ftp: 1440 20% 10080 refresh_pattern ^gopher: 1440 0% 1440 refresh_pattern -i (/cgi-bin/|\?) 0 0% 0 refresh_pattern \.html$ 300 50% 10 ignore-reload THANKS!! -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/not-caching-enough-tp25530445p25668625.html Sent from the Squid - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
