I'm a little confused as to what the proxy is actually doing in this scenario. Currently I have a server set up that is running Squid, so what I'd like to know is; is it possible to get Second Life to work through my proxy which would speed things up considerably I'd feel, as I've noticed SL has a habit of downloading the same things over and over, where as here Squid would simply serve me the cached version from the server on my LAN instead. Is this actually possible with the way that SL currently works? --[[User:Enverex Sieyes|Enverex Sieyes]] 17:04, 25 October 2008 (UTC) | |||
