I'm trying to get a Squid proxy set up on my NIM servers to allow it to do a lot more; NIM is currently my yum repo too, it makes sense to me to forward a lot of traffic through these hosts.
Currently the only need for Squid is to mirror .pypi.org, and likely .ibm.com to allow for downloads as needed.
However, I cannot get it to start.
In squid_cache.log I'm getting errors like the following. I've set ulimits to unlimited across the board, and that very large number (18446744073709551615) honestly looks like a cpp allocation of (-1), but, I may be mistaken
Any ideas on where to start looking? Cheers.
