File README.SuSE of Package squid
This is Squid Version 2, a greatly enhanced new version of the well known Squid proxy. New features (included in the precompiled binaries) include: * SNMP Support * Support for the new HTCP (Hypertext Transfer Cache Protocol) * Support for delay pools (bandwidth usage restrictions) * New Redirector interface * External cache user authentication * better performance for large caches Not included is support for cache digests, as digests cannot be disabled at runtime and may interfere with some Proxy setups. The directory /usr/share/doc/packages/squid/errors contains error messages in different languages. Simply copy the desired language files to /usr/share/squid/errors! The default installation is English. Important changes since Squid 2.2: Domain name matching: The function which checks for a match between a hostname and a domain name has been rewritten, and its behavior is now slightly different. Previously, the domain ``com'' would match the hostname ``foo.com'', but this is no longer the case. Now, if you must write ``.com'' to match ``foo.com''. Removed dnsservers: In this version, DNS lookups are done by the main Squid process by default. Truncate vs unlink: In version 2.2 Squid truncated disk files (by default) instead of unlinking them. This caused some installations to run out of inodes on the cache disks. Even though truncate makes Squid a bit faster, we have made the default to use unlink again. Look at http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v2/2.4/ for a full description Have fun!
