Re: [squid-users] Cache API

Hi Amos,

I need to have a list of all files cached in a network which has
multiple instances of Squid running. So, I was looking for an API to
query the cache and retrieve metadata about the files there. Is there
a better way to do this?

Thanks for the link Waitman, I will look into it.

Thanks
