Re: [squid-users] Quick question: AuthNTLMUserRequest::authenticate: need to ask helper

For a proxy serving 300 users - doesn't seem extreme.

Out of interest is it possible to see the total amount of connecting IPs
(or users..) for one day; IPs being unique. So if, at the end of today, I
wanted to say 'today there were 60 unique IPs' that used the proxy.. Or is
that more a job for Calamaris or other reporter..?
