How to monitor squid cache? (View hits and ...)

sarmadys · 12-06-2001, 02:19 PM

Hello

Somewhere I saw that they run a program that monitors squid cache activity in an online form.

It lists all requests and marks those supplied from cache with some word and those obtained directly from the site with another word.

Anyone knows how can I do this?

Thank you
Mac

Thank you very much

You mean I must look into squid log?

But I have seen that they run it and they outputs these logs to screen as it works.

??

Thank you

Go to http://freshmeat.net and search for squidtaild. You can customize any kind of filters which will be displayed as HTML pages, emails or winpopups.

I remember seeing another program which displayed graphs. But I don't remember if that was a tool to monitor squid logs or apache logs.
