squid and nagios

[Olaf Greis]

there are two things you can do:

- make squid serve at least one static page (read the squid documentation on 
how to do this) an use check_http to fetch this page

- check the accessibility of a diffrent server via the squid proxy (but keep 
in mind that this check will give you the warnings about the availibility of 
the different server) 

check_http -I ip.of.pro.xy -p proxyport -u http://somplace/somewhere/
