<H3>Central Squid Server</H3>

<P>The Smart Neighbour [URL disappeared]
(or 'Central Squid Server' - CSS) is a cut-down
version of Squid without HTTP or object caching functionality.  The
CSS deals only with ICP messages.  Instead of caching objects, the CSS
records the availability of objects in each of its neighbour caches.
Caches that have smart neighbours update each smart neighbour with the
status of their cache by sending ICP_STORE_NOTIFY/ICP_RELEASE_NOTIFY
messages upon storing/releasing an object from their cache.  The CSS
maintains an up to date 'object map' recording the availability of
objects in its neighbouring caches.</P>

requires a license (priced by the number of seats) but evaluation licenses are available.</P>
