Re: Squid


Hi guys,
I have a simple question. Does Squid update automatically the cached data in
cases when files were replaced by new files while keeping the names same?
Thanks

I can't find a visible_hostname anywhere.

Hello Karl,

I believe instead of having "localhost" as your hostname, it must have a
visible hostname (hence the error). So try this:

type hostname and see what's your hostname. If you know your hostname
by heart..good. Also, if you have set your server with an internal
static ip address, remember that too.

Then in the /etc/host.conf, replace the "127.0.0.1" with the actual ip
address of that server and replace "localhost" with your server name.

Correct me if I'm wrong :)


Yes the hostname is queer. It is:
karl@karl-desktop:~$ hostname
karl-desktop

So I can change that to k5di.com which I used on Red Hat and it
worked fine. Will try that.

Karl
