Good day! I'm new to perl but not that much of a newbie. In fact I was in the peak of learning perl but then I have to focus my concentration with work when I got my first job. I will be a trainee for 3 months and my first assignment is to administer our squid proxies(4). I line with this, the work target form includes a step in which I would have to learn how to update every config files of squid automatically, meaning, if my boss updates a squid config on one machine, changes will also be applied on other squid proxies not to mention telling them also to run 'squid -k reconfig' to reflect the changes.
I need a hint on how I will going to accomplish this using perl. Perhaps a program sitting on every proxy machine and then another program which will tell that program regarding the squid config changes and the first program will issue a line like 'open SQUID, "/usr/local/squid/sbin/squid -k reconfig |" upon hearing the advertisement from the second program. What do you think? Do you know another better way to do it? Any insight about the concept or the modules I can use, if theres any.. Thanks a lot and God Bless. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Check out the new Yahoo!
