Re: [squid-users] two squids in same computer

To run two instances of squid with different settings, you do not need two
separate installations. You can use two different configuration files and
duplicate the startup script (usually /etc/rc.d/init.d/squid) accordingly.
There are circumstances where you might need a separate installation but
this is a rather exotic thing. Note that you cannot run two squid's on the
same ip adress and port !
