RE: [squid-users] win_domain_group processes are busy

Dear Amos,

I added children=7 at the end of the following line at file squid.conf :

external_acl_type win_domain_group ttl=120 %LOGIN
c:/squid/libexec/mswin_check_lm_group.exe -G children=7

Even I restart the SQUID 2.7.STABLE4 windows version, the cache.log still
show it only use 5 process

2008/12/11 03:19:50| helperStatefulOpenServers: Starting 7
'mswin_ntlm_auth.exe' processes
2008/12/11 03:19:51| helperOpenServers: Starting 5
'mswin_check_lm_group.exe' processes

Pls advise.

Regards,
Chris Lee

Looks like an external ACL which means the children=N option.
