      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 :) ) ?

          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:

              1. cd /var/squid/log/
              2. 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

                ohhh wow search it baby

                --> http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=14609.0

                  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
