Very Computer

Hi all,

I have a big big problem with squid,
is it possible to run squid in the following configuration:

           ____
LAN1------|    |
          |    | Internet-IP for LAN1
          |    |----------------------
          |    | Internet-IP for LAN2
LAN2------|____|

So, if a request comes from LAN1 (customer1) squid uses the official
IP-Adress for LAN1 and if the request comes from LAN2 (customer2) it
uses the second official IP-Adress.
A possible solution would be to run two different squid-daemons, but in
this case they wouldn't use the same cache.
Both customers would like to have a correct volume-accounting for which
they have to pay for.
I hope, anyone can help me..

best regards, Dietrich v. d. Groeben

Why dont you make the first daemon the parent for the other?
Should solve all your problems...

How do I configure two different squid-daemons on a Suse 6.0? Is it enough
to generate two different squid.conf-files ?

Run two squid daemons as siblings and don't cache if the answer
came from the sibling cache. This way you will share the total cache
disk space and correct internet connection is used to full-fill the
requests from that subnet.

Usage: squid [-hsvzCDFRUVY] [-f config-file]

Check the files in /etc/rc.d and change the start of squid.
