If you use some of the cheaper but still decent alternatives for Squid setup and support ie - Vyatta for example - they help maintain that for you. Facebook, MySpace, igoogle - etc - just make no sense to cache ... On the other hand - being able to simply save 30% bandwidth is huge ... in

A caching proxy server would help that a lot. I am in the middle of moving things around but when it was active I was seeing a 30% drop in traffic that was not P2P. On Wed, Mar 17, 2010 at 10:03 AM, MDK rea...@muddyfrogwater.us wrote: I'm a provider for a small rural school, where the computer

Mostly, it broke the uploader.  No one could upload pictures.  Also,things would just time-out or facebook would just not log in. I was doing transparent interception and redirecting with iptables.  The network is NAT'ed and squid was on the NAT machine.  I worked hard to make it work, even

I'm a provider for a small rural school, where the computer lab has about 25 machines in it. I provide them 5 meg, and have been thinking about turning it up a little, because during certain times in their computer classes, they seriously swamp that 5 megs, and they don't do p2p or download
