Hello everybody, i've just finished installing squid on my linux box, and it seems to work for caching HTTP request for my betea tester clients. Right now my next target it to cache the FTP request too, because most of my clients using some update program to request the data from main ftp server (just like when you update Norton Anti Virus database file, but the "update" that my client's requesting is very big abuot 70Mb/update that's why i need to cache it) But as far as i understand squid cannot act as FTP transparent proxy that's why the squid only accept traffic to destination port 80. (please correct me if i'm wrong)
Actually the program that my client's are using support http request update too, but when i checked the log squid said like this. as i understand that it always TCP_MISS and DIRECT, has anyone can tell me what can i do to cache these request ? is it easier to fix this or just use the other program like frox ? 1043383117.475 3878 192.168.10.34 TCP_MISS/200 361 GET http://ftp.ibmlink.ibm.com/econfig/ECFXF_ACTIVE_DIR.CTL - DIRECT/207.25.249.17 text/plain 1043383129.853 12324 192.168.10.34 TCP_MISS/200 11871 GET http://ftp.ibmlink.ibm.com/econfig/FXFDIR2/NMFD_SERVER_DEFAULT_CONTROL.SER - DIRECT/207.25.249.17 text/plain 1043383148.619 12592 192.168.10.34 TCP_MISS/200 665 GET http://ftp.ibmlink.ibm.com/econfig/FXFDIR2/STAGE/AP%20AS400/NMFD_SERVER_CRCT ABLE.SER - DIRECT/207.25.249.17 text/plain 1043383154.746 6086 192.168.10.34 TCP_MISS/200 677 GET http://ftp.ibmlink.ibm.com/econfig/FXFDIR2/STAGE/AP%20AS400%20SOFTWARE/NMFD_ SERVER_CRCTABLE.SER - DIRECT/207.25.249.17 text/plain 1043383161.082 6323 192.168.10.34 TCP_MISS/200 679 GET http://ftp.ibmlink.ibm.com/econfig/FXFDIR2/STAGE/AP%20RS6000%20SOFTWARE/NMFD _SERVER_CRCTABLE.SER - DIRECT/207.25.249.17 text/plain 1043383173.742 12646 192.168.10.34 TCP_MISS/200 669 GET http://ftp.ibmlink.ibm.com/econfig/FXFDIR2/STAGE/AP%20RS6000/NMFD_SERVER_CRC TABLE.SER - DIRECT/207.25.249.17 text/plain Has anybody having the same problem like i do ?
