Re: [squid-users] squid reconfigure question

well its simple. first of all just set your options vice versa
i mean kern.maxfiles and kern.maxfilespreproc or the other that you need to
recompile your kernal, after recompiling.
download your proxy and run it as you are doing first time
if you don't want to lose data then don't delete your cache files. after
installation specify your cache_dir /your/old/cache/
and set all other required option
then run your squid. if you want to make sure then you can rm -rf squid .
(if you have cache in different folder) or can rename your folder to make
sure that your fresh proxy is running vice versa
I will not take responsiblity of any lost.
Hope this information will help you

  That's somewhat more explanation already : it is welcomed.

  If you format a filesystem with data on; then the only way to
 preserve those data is making a backup onto another medium and or
 other disk (for instance).
