RE: [squid-users] Squid on NT with WCCP

Thanks Rex,

Unfortunately the Linux route so far has not been an option - my company is
one of those that insists "we're a microsoft shop, we don't do Linux", and
eventually I need to deploy this to 20 or 30 sites that have existing
Windows NT/2000 servers, so I was really hoping to find it on Windows.

I spent the day yesterday downloading and learning how to use MSYS and MinGW
and did a test build. Seemed to go okay, but according to Henrik I'm wasting
my time anyway since I need WCCP support in the IP stack.

Back to the drawing board I guess.

Thanks again,

Steve

Steve,
We looked when we were building our cache box, to and only found the
Un*x stuff for WCCP, It really isn't too bad to build.

If you need help building a Linux box with Squid and WCCP let me know.
Linux is the way to go with Open Source products like Squid.

Download the RedHat 9 ISO images and burn them to CD.
http://www.linuxiso.org/distro.php?distro=7

If you've not build a linux box don't install any of the server items
from the Redhat installation, but make sure you have all the development
libraries installed.

Then use the document I sent.
