[isp-caching] Re: Squid Forwarding to an other Cache
Firstly, a much better place for questions like this is the squid users list, squid-users@.... Also check out the FAQ on www.squid-cache.org.

I am not sure exactly what you are trying to do. I assume that the line below is in squid.conf on the *child*. This line only configures the child cache to send requests for object not in its cache to the parent (1.2.3.4) on port 8080. It does not define the child as listening on port 8080. Are you sure that squid is listening on 8080 on the *parent* and on the *child*? (use telnet to check).

I think what you are saying is that the clients (users) have their browser manually configured to query a proxy on port 8080 - right? The default port for squid to listen on is 3128. You can change this either on the command line (-a 8080) or in squid.conf (I think the option is 'port' or 'http_port' but I don't ave a running squid to check). If you wish to use the same port on the parent, you must also configure it the same there. Note that to the parent, the child cache looks just like any other client.

Rgds,
John
PS: Using no-query is a good idea, particularly with multiple, disparate children - ICP will only add more latency.

Hi guys

Do you know how to configure Squid in order to forward
incoming traffic (with TCP port 8080 defined in the
clients browsers) to an other Cache. The traffic has
to be forwared on port 8080

I know the following commands
. edit the /etc/squid/squid.conf file with the
following lines :
cache_peer 1.2.3.4 parent 8080 0 no-query
prefer_direct off

But this seems to work only for incoming traffic with
port 80 (not 8080)

Thanks for your help

Regards

Patrick
