Damn, I shouldn't have pressed the send button yet .... Anyway, I found a similar scenario, at least for small environments, at http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Webwasher But I don't see any chance to support multiple icap servers. Is there a solution for this problem (I don't want to use the loadbalancer for balancing my icap servers), I don't want to build this solution if I can prevent it somehow: Clients | | v Loadbalancer | | v Squid-Proxies ---> Loadbalancer ---> ICAP-Server | ^ ICAP-Server | | ^ | -------------------------------------------------------| | | v INTERNET I would appreciate any input, thanks, best regards On Mon, Mar 29, 2010 at 3:18 PM, guest01 <guest01@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi guys, > > We want to replace our current proxy solution (crappy commercial > product which is way too expensive) and thought about Squid, which is > a great product.I already found a couple of example configurations, > basically for reverse proxying.
