squid step by step
 

hi
I have FC2 machine and i am conneted to internet through this machince. The NIC card which is connented to internet have following network specification
static IP := 192.168.1.190
network mask := 255.255.255.0
gateway := 192.168.1.11
DNS : = 192.68.1.11

now i have one more NIC on this machince i am using this NIC to connect with one more machine having windows.
I want to use Internet on windows machine .
can anybody pls tell me step by step process to use squid.
also an example for squid.conf will be helpful

Hi..

You actually don't require squid.conf to run internet on windows m/c. Simply enable IP forwarding and SNAT on your Linux m/c. You can use 'iptables' for that. One more thing you need to use linux m/c IP as a gateway IP for your windows m/c. I hope this will help..

Hi..

For enabling IP forwarding simply open the file '/etc/sysctl.conf' and locate the option 'net.ipv4.ip_forward = 0'. Here change the value 0 to 1.

About NATing you can us the following command...
After doing all this you need to change the default gateway of your win m/c poining to your linux m/c ip.
