Re: Sibling Relation

Hi Henrik

I m very thankful to u to provide me support and guidance parallel with my work. In fact I didn't learn from this assignment as much I learnt from ur guidance.

Now I prepared another proxy in the premises where proxy2 is placed. And made the same configuration as in proxy1. Both were on the identical LAN. And they worked fine. I surprised to see that the new(suppose proxy3) is continuously communicate with proxy2 as well as proxy1. A little bit TIMEOUT_DIRECTs are there but ignore able.

In my opinion this is some kind of Bandwidth problem or router configuration problem b/w the premises where proxy1 is placed and where proxy2 is placed. What u say?

"In fact I increase the timouts for icp_query, the browsing of users using proxy1 become slow. So is there anyway to eliminate the problem?"
 
Anyway now I can prove to my seniors that there is no problem with my configuration.

Again thanx for co-operation
