installed Squid 2, but having no luck.

The config says the port is 3128, so if i set netscape etc to

i expect to be going via the proxy, and get squids error pages... but trying to access a site outside the network (connection not setup yet), I get the normal "Netscape windows error - server down"

What am i doing wrong.

While the error is, er, developing, can you do a netstat -an on both the relevant boxes to show what is actually happening, that might help..... -- Nick Drage, helping fill up the internet since 1993. 'It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.' Emiliano Zapata (Deceased)

you might want to check that squid is running (ps aux|grep squid). if not, do some debugging. first stop squid /usr/local/squid/bin/squid -k shutdown. then give it a few seconds and do /usr/local/squid/bin/squid -N. if nothing is printed on screen then squid should be running ok. if you want to debug, then while squid is running type /usr/local/squid/bin/squid -d 3 or whatever debugging leverl you want. errors may be found in /usr/local/squid/logs/*.log or just cache.log.
