[plug] Squid problem -- RH7

[Bill Pickett]

Thanks Leon

This was the problem -- I'll take your advice onboard and RTFM next time --
I just knew one of you leet geeks in this forum would know the answer a lot
faster -- after all this is what this forum seems to be for.  Someone
correct me if I am wrong.

regards

bp

As per the squid FAQ:

http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/FAQ/FAQ-11.html#ss11.38

---8<---
11.38 Unknown cache_dir type '/var/squid/cache'

The format of the cache_dir option changed with version 2.3. It now
takes a type argument. All you need to do is insert ufs in the line,
like this:

cache_dir ufs /var/squid/cache ...

RTFM?  :)
