This is for version 2.5 that I've only followed from a web howto. Just find their respective places in squid.conf.
/etc/squid/squid.conf:
Code:
http_port 127.0.0.1:3128
visible_hostname host.yourdomain.com
httpd_accel_host virtual
httpd_accel_port 80
httpd_accel_with_proxy on
httpd_accel_uses_host_header on
....
..
acl Safe_ports port 445 # to allow windows update
acl CONNECT method CONNECT
....
..
acl local_net src 192.168.0.0/24
http_access allow local_net localhost
Create the cache directories:
# /usr/local/sbin/squid -z
Redirect your local network (192.168.0.0/24) to squid's IP (127.0.0.1) and squid's port (3128). If you are using PF in your FBSD, as an example:
/etc/pf.conf:
Code:
nat on $ext_if from ! ($ext_if) to any -> ($ext_if:0)
rdr on $int_if proto tcp from any to any port www -> 127.0.0.1 port 3128
Start the program:
# /usr/local/sbin/squid
check the cache.log for good signs:
# cat /var/squid/logs/cache.log
Code:

When squid is bind at 127.0.0.1, you don't need to specify a proxy ADDRESS:PORT combination in your clients' browsers. The redirection rule in your firewall will do it for them automatically. In IE, no checked boxes in LAN Settings and in other browsers, it is no proxy or connect directly to the internet. |
