What is SquidCacheAux?

SquidCacheAux is a BrazilFW add-on that assists Squid to cache dynamic content.
SquidCacheAux was created with Perl scripts from other existing projects.

- SquidCacheAux and system startup

When BrazilFW loads, a script takes care of checking the settings for SquidCacheAux, as well as all its dependencies.
If any of the components of SquidCacheAux is missing, the script will cause SquidCacheAux not to be loaded.
When SquidCacheAux runs for the first time there is still no configuration set for it. So, the startup script loads a default configuration (variables in the configuration master file and settings in squid.conf) for SquidCacheAux to work properly after being installed.
On this first run, a Failure message related to Perl support and squid.conf settings will present. Please, disregard it since it is a normal behaviour (this will be dealt with later on).

Note:
It is not necessary to modify any variable in the system files as well as adding new settings in squid.conf. All this will be done by the SquidCacheAux startup script.
If you have enabled in Squid the automatic creation of squid.conf you will have to reload Squid and SquidCacheAux.

- SquidCacheAux and system shutdown

When BrazilFW is turned off or rebooted a script is executed to properly stop SquidCacheAux.
This script removes the settings added to squid.conf, support for Perl in Lighttpd and the scheduled tasks in Cron.
In case the user uninstalls SquidCacheAux or Perl, the system will work normally (if the settings for SquidCacheAux are not removed from squid.conf and SquidCacheAux has been uninstalled, Squid will stop working).
