[okfn-help] Squid management (Re: Last on Caching for this evening...)

Ok, really the last bit now.

Any debugging, you'll want to look at::

	/var/log/squid3/access.log
	/etc/squid3/squid.conf

The configuration is simple, a list of webservers,
lists of websites on each server, and some minor
housekeeping.

If you change the config file, do::

	squid3 -k parse

to check for errors before doing::

	squid3 -k reconfigure

to reload the config or just use::

	/etc/init.d/squid3 reload

which does this automatically

If you need to purge something from the cache, you
can run, on eu6, for example::

	squidclient -p 80 -m purge http://www.ckan.net
