[Server-devel] Need Squid help

[Adrian Chadd]

A few things;

"With 1024 file descriptors available" isn't a lot; that should
be higher (8192 at least).

No idea for the squid.conf - I have no idea about that bundled squid
package. :) try "squid -v" to see where its default etc path or prefix
is, then read the init script shipped with the squid rpm (/etc/init.d/squid ?)
to see if it manually sets the config file path.

Finally, find out what port 3128 is doing? Someone may have already configured
apache as a proxy.
