Re: [squid-users] Squid usage

You can use cachemgr.cgi which comes with Squid source. cachemgr.cgi is the
cgi program which is used to get information from Squid at runtime. This
gives the output in the browser to which there is need to configure in
Squid.conf. Put your cgi program in your apache's cgi-bin dir and access
through browser. And To give access rights, See cachemgr_passwd directive in
Squid.conf.

To access cache manager in the command prombt, Use client program like
this...

#pwd
/usr/local/squid/bin
#./client mgr:menu
... Displays menu....
#./client mgr:<menu-item>
Gives Specific output........
