What is in a name? Squid vs SQuID

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I ran across the following statement referring to Squid in an ancient Sys Admin article talking about Linux Transparent Proxy.

Source Quench Introduced Delay (SQuID) is a popular freeware proxy server for UNIX machines (see "Software Resources" sidebar for more information).

Where the "Software Resources" sidebar has:

 Squid can be obtained from any of following sites:

http://squid.nalanr.net
ftp://squid.nlanr.net

The Squid Web site also contains a wealth of installation and configuration information. Squid manuals are also available from this site.

Does anyone know any history on Squid's name? Was SQuID the proper name for the Squid caching proxy at one point in time? Or is this perhaps a bad expansion in the article?

Link - Linux Transparent Proxy (Sys Admin, May 1999, Volume 8, Issue 5, Article 3)
