It’s important to note that in this situation, the proxy cache can play two different roles in a hierarchy. It can be configured to be a  sibling cache and be able to only serve documents it already has or it can be configured as a  parent cache and be able to get documents from another cache or from the source directly. NOTE: A good strategy to avoid generating more network traffic than without web caching is to choose to have several sibling caches and only a small number of  parent caches. Configuration of the “/etc/rc.d/init.d/squid” script file for all kind of configuration Configure your “/etc/rc.d/init.d/squid” script file to start and stop Squid Internet Object Cache. This script have been modified to setup swap cache for Squid in “/cache” instead of “/var/spool/squid”. Create the squid script file (touch /etc/rc.d/init.d/squid) and add: #!/bin/bash # squid This shell script takes care of starting and stopping # Squid Internet Object Cache # # chkconfig: - 90 25 # description: Squid - Internet Object Cache. Internet object caching is \ #   a way to store requested Internet objects (i.e., data available \ #   via the HTTP, FTP, and gopher protocols) on a system closer to the \ # requesting site than to the source. Web browsers can then use the \ # local Squid cache as a proxy HTTP server, reducing access time as \ # well as bandwidth consumption. # pidfile: /var/run/squid.pid # config: /etc/squid/squid.conf PATH=/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin
