Yep, I was originally running cern, this was slow, and was a pain when purging incomplete cache entries. I have since moved to Harvest Cached. It is VERY fast, and I have it running with around 300 simultaneous connections. There is a mirror of the harvest stuff at ftp://ftp.tas.gov.au/unix/harvest/Cache/cached-1.4.pl2-src.tar.gz There is also a mirror of the cern stuff in ftp://ftp.tas.gov.au/unix/cern/ If you need a hand compiling Harvest, let me know (Shouldn't have any problems though) >Question: There is any sense in putting two ethernet controlers in a proxy >server to phisically separate the internal (protected) network from >the external ? Yes. It is a good Idea. However I suggest you have a look around the net for information on "Bastion" hosts. Cheers, Scott D.
