Squirm is a fast & configurable redirector for the Squid.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Squirm has the following features:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Very, very fast
|
|
|
|
|
-Virtually no memory usage
|
|
|
|
|
-It can re-read it's config files while running by sending it a HUP signal
|
|
|
|
|
-Interactive test mode for checking new configs
|
|
|
|
|
-Full regular expression matching and replacement
|
|
|
|
|
-Config files for patterns and IP addresses.
|
|
|
|
|
-If you mess up the config file, Squirm runs in Dodo Mode so your squid
|
|
|
|
|
keeps working :-)
|

|
It has been written because the existing redirector scripts used too much
|
|
|
|
|
memory and all were too slow for Squids that receive a lot of requests.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It can handle nifty things like file mirrors with the regex pattern replacement
|
|
|
|
|
strings, and do site blocking - useful for schools. It could also do such
|
|
|
|
|
things as banner add rewriting, and just about anything else :-)
