Re: [suse-linux-uk-schools] Squid2
Ive finally installed Suse, got apache running, along with ftp, installed Squid 2, but having no luck. The config says the port is 3128, so if i set netscape etc to Proxy http 1921.168.1.1 port 3128 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.

I have tried saying this before, but the list tells me that I am not a member at home, so I re-apply to the list and it then tells me that I am already a member. Oh hum!
Anyway Thanks for all the help with Squid. It's now working, I haven't played with anything other than the following...
Commented out the line... http_access deny all Added the line... http_access allow all - not sure of the effect of this as I've been busy elsewhere but it works.
Sometimes the system will refuse to see an address and reports that it can not resolve the URL, but getting there.
Thanks again.
Adrian

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.

This ought to work assuming that this is the IP of the Suse proxy. Can you browse direct from the proxy (using lynx if you haven't setup X yet)? It might just be a routing / networking issue.
