Sir,
We need to configure squid for our environment . I'm giving the requirement
1. we have the domain in windows 2008 and have to authenticate the users in it
Supported by any recent version.
2. we have to limit the total usage of browsing time of the day for
user (eg. user1 can use 1hrs each day, user 2 can use 2 hrs each day)
Supported by any recent version.
3. we have to limit the download limit of the day for user (eg. user1
can download 100 mb each day, user 2 can download 1GB each day)
Quota (of a kind) supported only by Squid-3.2 (beta).
Requires external bandwidth monitoring and accounting for all other
releases.
We can user linux as well as windows for internet server
but domain server cant be changed that must be windows server 2008.
Please suggest which server flavour should i use(Linux or Windows)
The choice depends on other criteria which have not been stated.
Windows has limited FD resources (max 2048) and a few unavailable
features (ie NAT support), and Squid-3 is not considered production
ready on Windows at this time. These may or may not be a problem.
You may also choose from BSD, Solaris or AIX servers.
Please advice me ang give me the documentation for the same
. I'm looking your favourable reply
