RE: [squid-users] can i use SQUID for Caching Only..

 
1) no, can't
2) cache_peer

In question 1 you state you don't want to proxy and in question 2 you ask
how to pass requests to your apache proxy box. The definition of a proxy is
something that performs a function on behalf of someone else. "pass requests
at the squid box....to proxy box" *is* proxying.

Another way to look at it is if squid were to cache anything, then those
cached bits of information would get there due to the proxying capabilities
of the server. Ie: no proxy, no cache.
