Ok, so for the other part of my question, how can I make squid cache ALL the files (about 200 .txt) that are in the web-server? Should I write a script to just try to wget them all and that way "populate" the cache completely? I've also noticed that when I query the cache it says it has more objects than the amount of requested objects (I have tried to wget 20 files but the cache would say it has 34 objects in cache) is that normal? Thanks for all the help Miguel On Thu, Oct 8, 2009 at 11:45 PM, Henrik Nordstrom <henrik@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > ons 2009-10-07 klockan 16:21 -0400 skrev Miguel Cruz: > >> I've managed to get querying squid through snmp down.
