RE: [squid-users] RedHat Linux 7.2 + kernel 2.4.9-31 + WCCP

Thanks for the info Henrik. The GRE module patch currently available doesn't
apply cleanly to the 2.4.9-31 kernel. I'll go for the ip_wccp-specific
module instead.

You must use a WCCP capable GRE endpoint. Either a patched GRE module or
the ip_wccp specific module. See the Squid FAQ for both options.
