Hi Patrick,
great. Just a thing to remember: If you happen to have configured your
proxy the right way, then there are other issues you have to fight:
You have to define some exclusions to the rule because squid on webcache
fails to serve requests to tjener (I think) or to its webmin interface
(port 10000). If this is not possible with wpad, then we could try to
make squid to allow access to localhost/tjener. At this point, we might
want to do some more optimizations for squid configuration:
- prepare roomwise access control
- disable caching of pages whose caching is useless (volatile pages, big
files, ...)
