I take it that squid is not starting when the machine boots currently?

You need to know what your default runlevel is, you can find this out by typing:

Code:

runlevel

from the command prompt, run man runlevel for more details.

Assuming that your default runlevel is 3 and that you have a /etc/rc3.d folder.

(as root):

Code:

ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/squid /etc/rc3.d/S99squid

My default runlevel is N 5.

[root@localhost ~]# runlevel
N 5
[root@localhost ~]#
After booting I am giving command using Terminal

[root@localhost ~]#/etc/rc.d/init.d/squid start

it is starting.

What is the output from:

Code:

find /etc -type d -name rc5.d

And additionally:

Code:

find /etc -type f -name '*squid*'

Yes, I understand that.

Generally, the system startup scripts are in a sub folder of /etc

There would be a folder for each run level ( rc1.d rc2.d rc3.d etcetera)

What I was trying to find out from the find commands I asked you to perform, was "Where is your rc5.d folder located?" and "Do you have an automated startup file for squid at any run level?"

Please can you run the commands and let me know the results.
