RE: [squid-users] Location rewrites and rproxy

Henrik,

Again thank you for your unbelievably quick response. I am not a squid
hacker, unix programmer etc. Would you be interested in porting the
location rewrite portion to rproxy to version 3.0 for a fee? Would it be
sensible for me to use version 3.0 in a production environment,
considering the requirement for location rewrites?

Regards

Mike

You don't... the development of Squid-2.6 has stopped and Squid-3.0
will be the next release.

You can always get the rproxy branch from the SourceForge CVS server.
This will give you Squid-2.6+rproxy at the last point in time the
rproxy branch was developed. Unfortunately I do not think this Squid
version will be very stable...

Not sure I understand the question, but if you refer to the location
rewrite interface of rproxy then the location rewrites function very
much like the forward url rewrites via the redirector interface.. The
helper is sent one line per Location header seen, starting with the
URL and followed by some additional information, and Squid expects
the helper to return the new URL to use, or a blank line for no
change..
