Topic: Squid Query

[Rob Kearey]

I've also noticed that in my squid access.log, all items seemed to be TCP_MISS - DIRECT. Are the ACL's set up to pass everything straight on - is anything actually being cached here?

It might be useful if e-smith came equipped with calamaris to examine the squid cache.

I installed calimari and here is part of the report on my e-smith box.  I have been surfing a lot so I expect that is why the MISS rate is so high.

If you don't have calimari, I found a version of it on rpmfind that worked.

If you need more info let me know.
