RE: suggestion for new cachemgr-feature

Hey,

apart from the options like IMS mode etc.... (which indeed would be
nice features to add to squid), the cache host can be filled in by default *for the host running squid* at compile time, the port number is filled in by default to 3128:

after executing the ./configure script,

edit the Makefile in the src directory and uncomment the following:
HOST_OPT = # -DCACHEMGR_HOSTNAME="getfullhostname()"
to
HOST_OPT = -DCACHEMGR_HOSTNAME="getfullhostname()"

This works fine for us.

Cheers

Paul

Hi,

could you please implement what you can read at
http://www.netcache.com/DOC/manager.html under "Using the Cache Manager" ?

>setenv CACHEMGR_HOSTNAME www.yoursite.com
>setenv HARVEST_CACHED_PORT 3128
>
>exec ./cachemgr.cgi

I missed this since I changed from Cached to Squid!
