Hello to all,
I have very recently installed SUSE Linux 6.4 and downloaded Squid. I am a brand new user of this operating system (my brain is getting badly over heated), and would like help to install the above proxy server. If there is any kind sir or madam out there who could kindly point me in the right direction. This is perhaps a tall order to help a beginner, But thanks all the same in anticipation.
SuSE should come with Squid. Install the RPM through yast, and run "/etc/rc.d/squid start". Set your web browser's proxy to point to the squid server, port 8000 for web and FTP. If you want to customise it more to suit your needs, edit /etc/squid.conf; the sections should be reasonably well commented.
