Title: why is squid also accelerating?
Post by: hanscees on May 23, 2003, 12:20:00 AM

Hi the squid.conf file in e-smith 5.6 is set to do caching as well as accelerating if I am not mistaken.

You could use this to let the squid accelerate outside requests to the webserver by a DNAT iptables rule. However, this is not implemented for the outside. Only the inside uses squid as caching proxy.

Why is this? Has anyone an idea?

I would also like to find out how to diesable the caching and to only use it as proxy.
How can I do that?

greetings

Hans-Cees

To support transparent proxy.
