Re: [squid-users] Re: not getting persistent connections to an ssl backend

Amos,

Many thanks, I upgraded to 3.1.18 and that seems to have done the
trick. Weird as no other parameters were changed. Not sure why 2.6 (
the default for the version of rhel that we have) did not work but no
need to investigate now,

Thanks again,

Rob
