Hey,

I love this idea, too.

Getting the information by example is much better than formulating
general guidelines. That's difficult for the author and hard to
understand for the reader.

When walking through examples, the user gets an intuition about the
problem and can grab the important things for his own needs.

Thank you both for the positive response, so i will return to develop this site out.
@ Daniel
this is a quiet good addition, i will add "overall memory usage" to the list as another parameter.

So may you both have an idea how we can reach experienced user to fill up this list with information, should we post it in the forum or in the Planet ?

Greetings to all

Erik

Hi all,
at this time i try to document something about the Cache Manager --> http://wiki.ipfire.org/nonpublic/de/configuration/network/proxy/configuration/cache and also i give the different directives a short test to proove the quality a little and there is a problem with the authentication over "Cache Administrator E-Mail:" if i use in here a e-mail address, there will be an error on it and i can´t log in, if i use a normal word i get access.
So i wanted to ask you if you can double check this to confirm this error (or maybe my error :-) . If this is a bug, i would use the "IPFire 2.x Bugs forum section to gave this probably bug a distant solution and a hint for users which have the same problem also i would give it then a note on the wiki.

This would help me, thanks in advanced

Erik
