>From what I read in the Polipo Manual it seems that I can't set the >maximum disk space occupied by Polipo cache. Do I read that correct? Polipo doesn't maintain an index to the cache.

That's *mega*bytes, not gigabytes, for you youngsters and RedHat employees ;-) >What's the best way to achieve it? http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/polipo/polipo.html#Purging > I would be very satisfied if Polipo could limit its disk usage and > replace the oldest files with the new files if the that threshold is > reached. Sorry, but if that's what you want, you probably want a very different proxy from Polipo. > Moreover, what will happen if Polipo runs out of available disk space? It's supposed to react gracefully, but Kamil's mail seems to imply that's broken. -- Juliusz ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Windows Azure Live!
