[squid-users] protect squid.conf file

[--Ahmad--]

hmmmm

what about if i insert a directive inside squid and this directive not being shown in squid.conf ??


say i want to add line to the current squid.conf but i don’t want to add that line in squid.conf 

also i don’t want to include other external file 


is there a method to add directive in  squid ?

may be possible before compile ??




cheers
