Henrick, Thank you for replying.
I don't think we're really looking for a mirror: we only want a superficial (first page and images) copy of the page locally. As I said, we won't be looking to the same site twice so I'll have to keep my mirror directory clean of old content incase all the sites I fetched last night weren't visited. Hmmm, it almost sounds like a local... cached copy... of the page. But, if this is the appropriate approach, fine by me. It looks like http://squid.visolve.com/squid24s1/externals.htm gives me all (or most) of the information I'd need to create a redirector? I'm really just looking for a way to get a TCP_HIT (of any kind) when one of these users asks for a page in their queue. -------------------------- David Olbersen iGuard Engineer 11415 West Bernardo Court San Diego, CA 92127 1-858-676-2277 x2152 > -----Original Message----- > From: Henrik Nordstrom [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, June 16, 2003 2:53 PM > To: David Olbersen; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [squid-users] Pre-fetching > > > On Monday 16 June 2003 22.56, David Olbersen wrote: > > > My organization doesn't really care (that much) about the bandwidth > > being used, we are supremely interested in this small group of > > users being able to access these cached sites as quickly as > > possible with existing hardware.
