Squid Poll

I think, based on the questions about the squid package on the mail lists, you can safely assume that this will be a popular package. Unfortunately, because squid has so many various uses, adding onto your basic package is going to become a very involved task. It'll be kind of hard to come up with a one-size-fits-all package.

I am happy with just the basics to start with. Seems to be going ok for me for now.

I'm trying to keep a specific scope on the project as it expands and I probably won't be able to meet everyone's needs. The primary development path I've been contemplating is:
-
Squid
-
squidGuard
-
Log Integration into Web GUI
-
HAVP/Squid
The current Squid configuration allows for quite a bit of complexity, but the challenge will be determined based upon everyone's request and of course, my time. :) I actually find this a good outlet to be creative and enjoy it, but there are so many other demands on my time development has been slower than I'd like. I'll get there…

I'd like to be able to use the proxy portion of Squid on the wrap platform.
(I'd actually be happy with jftpgw - as all i really need is a ftp proxy – but jftpgw doesn't support SSL/TLS.)

I don't have access to a wrap platform to perform any testing on. Can you identify any specific configuration differences that may be necessary? Thanks!

keep in mind: wrap runs from cf and has a read only file system. to many write will kill the media in quite short time if you set it to read write. also the wrap (only) has a 266 MHz CPU and 128 MB RAM. I wouldn't recommend running a caching proxy application on a cf-media. Also note that the embedded builds have no packagesupport either.

hoba:
- i was hoping to just use squid as a proxy – with no caching.
- but it sounds like the lack of packagesupport is pretty much a 'deal killer'?
Mike:
as hoba says wrap is an embedded platform running from CF - (read only), and is only a 266mhz proc with 128M of memory. It's a tiny hardware footprint. Also, as hoba says no packagesupport. -
The embedded builds still have package functionality, but it is not exposed to the webGUI. Although this could change in the future (particularly for packages that aren't write-heavy), those that want to run packages will need to use the 'standard' build on a hard drive or microdrive for the time being.

Problem I have is the standard install differs from the wrap install right after installation. I'm running the wrap install because it doesn't auto-assign an interface to the lan ip-range and the box I'm running is a wrap but it has a 20gig hard drive in it.

You can use the standard install to install to a wrap if you know what the ramifications are (drive always mounted RW).

Thanks Myntric
