Hi folks,

After much soul searching (and begging with my bank manager), I'm going
to upgrade to the latest Squid. I've configured my squid2 conf file
similar to my squid1 conf file, and would like a little feedback on how
it "looks" (like- am I off the planet, or close, what could I tweak
etc)...

I have a PentiumII 366mhz Celeron (or will have by the weekend), with
192mb of RAM, an 8gig drive for a cache mounted under /var/spool/cache,
running Slackware Linux 3.3 (Kernel 2.0.36).

Here's the lines that have been uncommented/implemented in the conf
file...

http_port 8080
icp_port 3130
cache_mem 24 MB
cache_swap_low 97
cache_swap_high 98
maximum_object_size 6144 KB
ipcache_size 1024
ipcache_low 95
ipcache_high 98

# This one is the only reason I am upgrading. I can't get 1.1.22 to use
all 8 gigs..
# 7956 is the number of blocks linux reports are usable on the 8.4 gig
drive.
cache_dir /var/spool/cache 7956 16 256

# log files are mounted on a separate disk, with all other logs
cache_access_log /var/log/cache/access.log
cache_log /var/log/cache/cache.log
cache_store_log /var/log/cache/store.log

emulate_httpd_log on
pid_filename /usr/local/squid/logs/squid.pid
debug_options ALL,1
ftp_user squid@ehcs.com.au
ftp_list_width 72
cache_dns_program /usr/local/squid/bin/dnsserver
dns_children 5
unlinkd_program /usr/local/squid/bin/unlinkd
request_size 100 KB
reference_age 12 months
quick_abort_min 50 KB
quick_abort_max 95 KB
quick_abort_pct 60
connect_timeout 120 seconds
read_timeout 15 minutes
request_timeout 30 seconds
client_lifetime 1 day
ident_timeout 10 seconds
shutdown_lifetime 15 seconds
http_access allow manager localhost
http_access deny manager
http_access deny !Safe_ports
http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports

# this is how my old server was, is it safe?
http_access allow all
icp_access allow all
miss_access allow all

cache_mgr webmaster
cache_effective_user nobody
cache_effective_group nogroup
dns_testnames netscape.com internic.net nlanr.net microsoft.com

append_domain .ehcs.com.au
err_html_text mailto:admin@ehcs.com.au
memory_pools on
forwarded_for on
cachemgr_passwd xxxxxxxx shutdown
cachemgr_passwd xxxxxxxx all
client_db on
uri_whitespace allow

Any feedback is appreciated.
