i understand the concept of the redirector... but am having trouble with
what is passed to and what should be passed from the redirector... the
format of the input/output for the redirector...

i know c very well, but do not know perl at all... so would probably do
better in c... and system load is not a huge problem, as i am wanting to
do the following:
request ---> squid ----> redirector ----> squid -----> backto client
but what the redirector does is such:
get file ---> save file local ---> virus scan file local ---> re-write url
to local file if passed virus scan, else rewrite url error --> and pass
the new url on to client...
i will be scaning only .com, .exe, .zip, .tgz, .doc, and other virus
containing possibilities...
i am actually having trouble just getting the redirector to do the
following in c:
get url --> give url...
with no changes... or:
get url ---> if url = x then url = y, else url = url --> give url..
thanks if anyone can give me a c example of either/both
i dont want to start a prog. language war... just would like to do it in c
cause i know it...
