You need to use chkconfig.

Code:

chkconfig squid on

Cheers,

Hello,

Depends on what distro you're using. You can find the necessary info reading the man page for your distro. Since you didn't indicate what distro you use, I've listed the most common onces here.

For RedHat and related:

Code:

man chkconfig

For Debian and related (5.0)

Code:

man update-rc.d

For Debian and related (6.0)

Code:

man insserv

Kind regards,

Eric
