What you need is a) A HTTP server on the Squid server capable of serving the objects using HTTP, preverably with as identical properties as possible as the origin. This includes at least properties such as ETag, Content-Type, Content-Language, Content-Encoding and Last-Modified. b) wget, squidclient or another simple HTTP client capable of requesting URLs from the proxy. c) cache_peer line telling Squid that this local http server exists d) A unique http_port bound on the loopback interface, only used for this purpose (simplifies next step) e) cache_peer_access + never_direct rules telling Squid to fetch content requested from the unique port defined in 'd' from the peer defined in 'c' and only then..

adding content to the cache -- a revisit
There was a post on this same subject earlier this year. Want to post again to see if the solution space might have changed and if not, to get clarity on the suggested solutions. I've got a subset of content from a origin server that I would like to manually install into squid. The content pages are fixed content wise but I need to install new pages several times a minute. Much like the poster back in May, I was hoping there was some simple squid command that I could run to tell squid: 1) the web content page file name (which would already exist on the squid server) and 2) the name clients would use to http get this web page (and/or more complete object treatment info). Since the content will already exist on the squid server, I want to avoid the approach of having squid pull the content from the origin server. The content I'm trying to manually install into the squid server will be a subset of the origin server content, so for objects not manually installed into squid, squid will still need to go directly back to the origin server. Thanks
