Hi all, I'm new here, nice to meet you.

Assume I have a website www.bandwidthkilling.com, hosting a ISP A

In order to distribute bandwidth usage to another network / ISP,
I want to setup a squid cache server located at another ISP B, host name
cache.bandwidthkilling.com

Then at my website, I change the images linking from:
<img src=http://www.bandwidthkilling.com/somedir/some_images.jpg>
to
<img src=http://cache.bandwidthkilling.com/somedir/some_images.jpg>

Result: when someone access the images using the modified image links,
cache.bandwidthkilling.com will fetch and cache
www.bandwidthkilling.com/somedir/some_images.jpg , then return the requested
images to visitors.

After that, further request from clients to
http://cache.bandwidthkilling.com/somedir/some_images.jpg
will be served by cache.bandwidthkilling.com directly, without touching
www.bandwidthkilling.com,
until the cached images are expired.

Is this possible with squid ? If not, anyone know other solutions for my
need? Thanks.

Regards,
Kyle
