Re: [squid-users] Seperating request by type

Thanks for the tips, just one more thing.
What do the exact acl line should be for detecting files ending with /, .jpg
etc...?

How about delay_pools ? Can I use this ACL too so that I can limit the
bandwidth depending on the guessed file type ?

Thanks
