I've setup Squid3 running on Ubuntu 9.04 64-bit server, and configured it to act as a transparent proxy and setup my router following these instructions:
http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php...nsparent_Proxy
Everything works great as far as browsing, but my main goal was to cache large downloads (usually executables) that I download frequently. So I set the minimum to 300KB and the max to 100MB. The problem, though, is the cache is not being used. I can download a file at regular speed on one computer, and then try and download it again and it downloads from the internet again, rather than the cache, so the speed is no faster.
Here's my config file:
Code:
#Recommended minimum configuration:
acl manager proto cache_object
acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/32
acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8
acl localnet src 192.168.11.0/24 # RFC1918 possible internal network
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 1025-65535 # unregistered ports

http_access allow localnet
http_access deny manager
# Deny requests to unknown ports

# Deny CONNECT to other than SSL ports

# And finally deny all other access to this proxy

Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this and how to fix it? Thanks!
