Re: [SQU] viewing and downloading cache contents via a web browser?

Hmmm,

Are you looking to browse while offline, or for some other purpose? If
browsing offline, then just put Squid into offline_mode, and it will
never attempt to connect to an origin server. Then you can browse every
object in the cache by browsing to it's URL.

Or do you mean, just seeing what objects are /in/ the cache by name,
rather than actually seeing the object itself? If so, I guess you'd
have to do some trickery with the store.log, probably. There is also a
menu item in cachemgr.cgi to show every cache object, but I'm not real
sure whether it displays everything in the cache or not (and it seems to
not show everything on my box running under the Webmin web server--it
times out after a page and a half of entries).

Hope this helps.
