Re: [squid-users] Squid 2.7STABLE9 'zph_sibling' seemingly not tagging traffic

Hey Amos.

I believe we're already testing the package provided by Eliezer and have encountered some issues with the current workings. I know we'll be in touch with him shortly to discuss. Hopefully it's something fixable but he'll know more when we do :)

Thanks for the reply/info.

Nick

There is a bit of work and a lot of testing required to get it into 3.3, but if anyone is interested in helping out with that let me know. Eliezer has decided to concentrate on some needed further improvements now rather than back-ports.

They (ZPH) wrote two very different versions of the feature for 2.7 and 3.x, and we have extended and fixed the 3.x version in quite a few ways since it was merged. A lot of the "bugs" people have reported are either in code which was never setting TOS at all, or where they confused the up/down directionality of the packet flow. As for Lusca vs 2.7, yes being a fork of that version it is likely that Lusca contains any bug known in 2.7.
