SQUID CACHE FILES

onkeldave83

hello dudes,

i search for the squid or antivirus cache temp directory!

i know this:
/var/squid/cache/
/var/squidGuard/…

i search for files like "winrar32.exe" in the cache

where are the files (human readable :) ) ?

THANKS FOR ANY HELP

or…

where can i see how much from my 500gb squid cache is in use???

(but not over disk usage in pfsense sysinfo please!)

THANKS FOR ANY HELP!!

As far as I know, the cache files are not human readable. I would just take a look at your disk usage in the GUI/Status/System to estimate cache usage.

Cache files are not trivially human readable. It is possible to do what you're after and this excellent blog post should help you.

hmmm….

i find some jpegs, pngs and so on

here some commands i used:

cd /var/squid/log/
sort -r -n +4 -5 access.log | awk '{print $5, $7}' | head -25 | grep iso

with this command i can findmy downloaded debian iso image
but how can get i detailed information about cache usage, without satus->system (pfsense gui)

i want to know how much capa from 500gb is used for downloaded cached files till yet ;)

someone know?

i think i found a usefull tool for viewing cache
is a cgi script named: cachmgr.cgi

–> http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/CacheManager

for configuration i need info about apache version in pfsense1.2.3-release

ok i have one problem with this….my structur :(

i cant like this: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=14609.0

edit the acl localhost to my lan addy

acl localhost 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255

change to:

acl localhost 192.168.10.10/255.255.255.255

this it not possible because of
squid:
http_port 127.0.0.1:3333

Example with result solution ;)

when your structur:

intranet (wan) –- squid cache --- havp --- intranet (lan)

because of havp dont understand ftp protokoll

then you have to configure

/usr/local/etc/squid/cachemgr.conf

localhost:"your squid port"
f.e.
localhost:6666

you schouldnt write ips 127.0.0.1:port !!!!!!!!!!

step two:

/usr/local/etc/squid/squid.conf

at first add some lines before acl entries:

cachemgr_passwd disable offline_toggle reconfigure shutdown
cachemgr_passwd none all

and second add some lines after acl entries!

http_access allow manager localhost
http_access allow manager localnet
#http_access deny manager

i know the entry is false, but i dont have a solution to access with deny all manager rule???!!!!

thats all and you can access a perfect cache manager tool for squid ! :)
questions = pm

Good Luck
