Re: [squid-users] cachemgr.cgi

Does visolve not handle squid's documentation anymore?
The configuration manual on their website (http://squid.visolve.com/)
is for 2.4 stable x. If not, is there a place on the web that has the
configuration manual for 2.5 stable x ??
Or do I have to download the tarballs and read them from the system (which
would work also)

Ouch, I hate to give out misinformation, it's worth than saying nothing.
Thanks for the correction.

Looking at the squid.conf again I see that we are using the defaults to
block access:
acl manager proto cache_object
http_access allow manager localhost
etc.

thanks for the correction,
