Now I want to know which is better for productiuon enviroment?
Squid as a Parent proxy or HAVP as Paernt proxy ?
It's up to you to decide and both are 'supported' and documented on the havp website. Usually i use HAVP as a parent proxy for Squid because squid can use authentication programs (like ntlm that i use a lot in M$ networks) and can handle blacklist, ACLs etc ... so squid does all the job and havp is just used one step further just for the antivirus stuff .... On the other hand, every is logged in squid log file and i can genereate reports easily with sarg (also available in the rpmforge repo )
Thanks a lot. Having kept SQUID in front of HAVP, I now run HAVP as a PARENT PROXY as SQUID CAN HANDLE MANY THINGS. This is the first time I use HAVP and am happy the way it works. But I am still new to HAVP. So I wnat to discuss below 3 lines I have added to squid.conf.
First I addedd below line to squid.conf and restarted squid deamon.
cache_peer 127.0.0.1 parent 8080 0 no-query no-digest no-netdb-exchange default
Then I browsed the web and it worked.
Then I added below 2 lines to squid.conf and restarted squid deamon as well.
acl Scan_HTTP proto HTTP never_direct allow Scan_HTTP
Then too, I browsed the web and it worked. Now I have these 2 rules as well. But I don not have a proper idea of these 2 rules.
What does it say?
Is there any benifit, while having these 2 rules?
pls explain.

Is anybody out there who has set ip up on CentOS 4.4. I advice you to use havp instead of viralator ... Havp package exists in the rpmforge repo for centos 4.x ... -- Fabian Arrotin <fabian.arrotin@arrfab.net> _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-- Thank you Indunil Jayasooriya
