Hi,
I'm using edubuntu 6.06 on my machine.Its connected to the internet through the ethernet card eth0 and to our local network(LAN) through eth1.I tried to share internet with one win xp machine on our LAN using squid by specifying its ip and made some changes to the file squid.conf as said in the edubuntu help section.I configured the browser in winxp machine with proxy settings(IP & port no.).But when i enter a website address on the browser of winxp machine it flashes an error message in the browser as follows..

"
Here is result of your request:

Probably the requested site doesn't answer or it timed out. Check the address or try again.

Anyone pls help..
Thanks in advance.....

check your squid error log

have you checked/allowed

acl our_networks src 192.168.
in your squid.conf?

ya its allowed.it is as follows..
acl fortytwo_network src 192.168.11.11/255.255.255.0

try to use this:
acl fortytwo_network src 192.168.11.0/24
http_access allow fortytwo_network

http_access allow fortytwo_network is given under
http_access tag

if thats the case,

1.have you tried to use iptables + squid proxy?
2.or you go directly to squid? then try using internet sharing first using iptables

this time I tried squid only .
earlier i tried iptables as said by another member of the forum.but it didnt worked.

the link to that thread is.
