I have moved on a pace since my first message yesterday - thank you all who helped. I can now happily download files from clients on my isolated network, through my new proxy. #fanfare!!!!
However, I would really like to cache any file over 1 GB in size to disk, as the same file could get downloaded 100's of time a day by many different clients. The cache can purge/age out after a week or so, or when getting close to the 150 GB limit. I have configured cache_dir as below, but when I download a large 2 GB ISO file, I do not see it being cached within the /var/spool/squid directory structure and a subsequent download of the same file is no faster; so it is coming from Internet source. My full /etc/squid/squid.conf file looks like this: acl localnet src 0.0.0.1-0.255.255.255 # RFC 1122 "this" network (LAN) acl localnet src 10.0.0.0/8 # RFC 1918 local private network (LAN) acl localnet src 100.64.0.0/10 # RFC 6598 shared address space (CGN) acl localnet src 169.254.0.0/16 # RFC 3927 link-local (directly plugged) machines acl localnet src 172.16.0.0/12 # RFC 1918 local private network (LAN) acl localnet src 192.168.0.0/16 # RFC 1918 local private network (LAN) acl localnet src fc00::/7 # RFC 4193 local private network range acl localnet src fe80::/10 # RFC 4291 link-local (directly plugged) machines acl SSL_ports port 443 acl Safe_ports port 80 # http acl Safe_ports port 21 # ftp acl Safe_ports port 443 # https acl Safe_ports port 70 # gopher acl Safe_ports port 210 # wais acl Safe_ports port 1025-65535 # unregistered ports acl Safe_ports port 280 # http-mgmt acl Safe_ports port 488 # gss-http acl Safe_ports port 591 # filemaker acl Safe_ports port 777 # multiling http http_access deny !Safe_ports http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports http_access allow localhost manager http_access deny manager http_access allow localhost http_access allow localnet http_access deny to_localhost http_access deny to_linklocal include /etc/squid/conf.d/*.conf http_access deny all http_port 3128 coredump_dir /var/spool/squid refresh_pattern ^ftp: 1440 20% 10080 refresh_pattern -i (/cgi-bin/|\?) 0 0% 0 refresh_pattern . 0 20% 4320 shutdown_lifetime 10 seconds maximum_object_size 35 GB cache_dir aufs /var/spool/squid 150000 16 256 min-size=1073741824 cache_mem 256 MB maximum_object_size_in_memory 512 KB cache_replacement_policy heap LFUDA range_offset_limit -1 quick_abort_min -1 KB I have plenty of disk space on my root partition: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on tmpfs 2.4G 1.2M 2.4G 1% /run /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-ubuntu--lv 364G 8.3G 341G 3% / tmpfs 12G 12K 12G 1% /dev/shm tmpfs 5.0M 0 5.0M 0% /run/lock /dev/sda2 974M 252M 656M 28% /boot tmpfs 2.4G 4.0K 2.4G 1% /run/user/1000 I would really appreciate any pointers on what I am doing wrong? This is a test setup for now; so if there are security/best practice concerns about my config, I would like to be aware; but I need to get it working for now. Many Thanks Pin
