Hi Gert Thanks for you reply, I really appreciate it. But my next question, it then. Will no errors be displayed etc, due to not dns querys been resolved or no internet connection available.
Is there not a patch or a script to tell squid that the connection it not available, or down etc. For example (I know the two are different, but this is just an example) A while ago I used qmail for my ppp box, I had to patch qmail and setup a script in the ip-up.d (or down) that would tell qmail that the link is, going down. I know my example it a bit, lame and that im probally comparing apple to pears, but im just trying to get all the info I can before I try and make mission of trying to setup squid. I do have wwwoffle on my box current;y, which works fantasticlly, but there is no challenge in setting up the off line cache \ proxy server Kind Regards and thanks once again Brent Clark -----Original Message----- From: Gert Brits [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 21, 2004 3:18 PM To: Squid-Users Subject: RE: [squid-users] Squid on a ppp box Hi There Setting it up for a ppp line is not much different. Ensure to run squid on 0.0.0.0 and not an ip address, to make it easier to work. Try and find a cache server for your ISP, and use that as your parent server.
