This patch works :) Cisco Cache Engine is communicating correctly with=20
wccpd.

Now I'm making production-testings. For now seems to be OK.

Few reflections:
- location of scripts - I don't know where should it be, maybe in=20
/etc/wccp/scripts ?
- dc called in scripts - ugly :)
- all caches should be called from some configuration file (maybe in=20
/etc/wccp/wccpd.conf.


For now it looks OK. It's "raw" but works fine.
