[squid-users] Squid WCCP issue

[Kevin Morland]

Hello, I have searched the web and the squid site for day looking for 
an answer to the problem.

I am trying to implement transparent cache server.  I have a cisco 3640 
and an redhat server.  I have compiled the ip_wccp kernel module and 
have it loaded.  I have the default RPM from Red Hat for squid.

The problem is the router recognizes the cache-engine at the IP, 
however it reports unusable.  Here is the result of show ip wccp 
web-cache detail:
WCCP Cache-Engine information:
        IP Address:            206.253.190.4
        Protocol Version:      0.4
        State:                 NOT Usable
        Initial Hash Info:     00000000000000000000000000000000
                               00000000000000000000000000000000
        Assigned Hash Info:    00000000000000000000000000000000
                               00000000000000000000000000000000
        Hash Allotment:        0 (0.00%)
        Packets Redirected:    0
        Connect Time:          00:00:15

I do not know where to look for the problem, I have searched and tried 
everything I can think of.  The only thing I noticed was that gre as no 
packets running ifconfig -a.  I have also redirect the traffic with 
iptables.

Any help or suggestions would be most helpful.

Thanks,
Kevin Morland
