Hey, (not sure what’s your first name) What do you actually need from squid, in words. Do you need it as a caching proxy? What functionality is the main business of squid in your scenario? To give specific users ip addresses the option to use a specific outgoing address? Do you need\want squid to enforce some policy else then the issue you are having? If you only need to "load balance'" or decide which outgoing ip will be used for a specific user source IP then there are much more efficient ways to do that these days. Also when you are talking about "big" number of users with big numbers of connections you need to be more specific about your upper limit. If you want it to be more then 128 but less the 1024 I would say go with squid and compile it but... when you are talking about 1k+ I would recommend you to rethink your strategy. If you don't care about SSL-BUMP for example then there are really simple ways to write a simple proxy which will do what you need, you just need the right programmer. All The Bests, Eliezer * I am really not looking for a job to write a proxy.. but just think it's a kind suggestion to redirect into some other directions. ---- Eliezer Croitoru Linux System Administrator Mobile: +972-5-28704261 Email: eliezer@xxxxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: squid-users [mailto:squid-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of IAPS Security Services, Ltd.

I have an issue I've come across and I'm greatful if the community can suggest ideas here. I've recently deployed squid for Windows from Diladele (http://squid.diladele.com/) and they said to bring my issue to the mail list. Here goes: Squid requires each individual ip to be put on the network card instead of being permitted to use a cidr annotation for dedicated ip's. There is a 128 ip limit for squid by default. This limit can be removed for linux machines by re-compiling and adjusting the limits. In the ipv6 deployment that I'm trying to create, I need much more than 128 ip's. There are no instructions, at least none that I could find in a basic google search, on how to increase this limit on a windows deployment. With ipv6 ip's I'm setting up individual ipv6's per squid acl's so that users have access to specific ipv6 proxies. Only issue I have is the 128 ip limit imposed by default. Now when you have access to an ipv6 /29 range 128 usable ip's is a drop in the bucket and I'd need the ability to have squid to use thousands of ipv6 ip addresses on demand. The first 128 work fine, but when adding the 129th, the entirety of squid immediately stops working. The acl that I'm using looks like this: acl ip1 myip 2axx:xxxx:285::1 tcp_outgoing_address 2axx:xxxx:285::1 ip1 acl ip2 myip 2axx:xxxx:285::2 tcp_outgoing_address 2axxxx:xxxx:285::2 ip2 How can I compile squid for windows to get around the 128 ip limit imposed? -- Best Regards, Jared Twyler _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users
