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.
If you install squid thru source (available from http://www.squid-cache.org) then the default port is 3128 not 8000. Altho you can change this in the squid.conf file.
