I tried the following:

|mh@torres:/usr/local/stow > pgrep -v "(^#)|(^$)" /etc/squid.conf
|http_port 3128
|icp_port 3130
|htcp_port 4827
|cache_peer junkbuster.provider.de parent 8000 3130 no-query default
|cache_peer www-cache.provider.de parent 8080 3130 no-query default

junkbuster.provider.de is a junkbuster; www-cache.provider.de is a
squid; junkbuster can't do ftp.

When I try to access a ftp:// url, my local squid reports back "zero
sized reply".

What am I doing wrong?

I strongly feel that I have a lot of redundant entries in my
squid.conf. Which lines should I remove?

Any hints will be appreciated. thanks in advance.

Greetings
Marc
