Configuring Squid Proxy server & Transparent Proxy

[tomamodi]

dear  i think before forums is for new if understand all really not necessery to see any step by step
but i tried nearly 20 forums and every step by step i tried ten ten times but failed to succed  then reinstall the oprating system
again i reinstall and try some new
i think all writen step by step are for experts
so i can not take benifet of

I my self electronics expert in still camera,s

specially yashica  mf2 and yashica electro35   mamiya rb67 haselbeld

i wrote some step by step for my students that step by step are work even with closed eyes   with  more then 500 parts to dismental and re join all
but here i saw all step by step stop in some place so i think this all are waist of time for bigner like me is better to go through books
so there is no step by step who take you to run your cache i tried more then twenty i like the best is at  bigpond    and he also not explain that did his cache work with one nic or two did  work in lan or it should be connected to router direct or to hub with other client pc
even i buy ready to use step by step docomentation for $100  
regret

[Ricky]

HI
Tomamodi
I now all your commands are wrong they didnt take you to
cd /etc/squid
but you say you want to follow only advice from RICKY so ignore to say any thing
And ricky advice you to read CHOWN & CHMOD when you read and understand then you will be advised to read about directries if that finnished
Then you didnt need any forum help

Your self you can do every thing


OK BYE

Hmm...

Well what is all above ?
What you feel is right .. btw.. first of all you should know that when you install squid from rpm then every config file of squid goes to /etc/squid but when you install it from source it from package tar.gz then mostly it goes to /usr/local/squid

!!!

yes you are the only one who can decided wht to do or wht not !!! basically tutorials are written so that anyone can get help, either it is newbie or expert !! but make sure you also use your own stuff.. and yes you also grab new things.. This tutorial is about squid not about Linux at whole so the things which are GNU/linux OS related common task are not taught here, just told to do !!

Anyway.. be calm and energytic !!!
@your LAN Setup

Simply make a box proxy server, put Ip of your router as gateway in that and configure your other LAN machines to use squid proxy by putting squid machine's address and port in their browser.

RICKY     here i am    DONE up to here

[Ricky]

So now your Proxy is configured and running !!

Now first check that are you able to browse on squid box itself or not, I mean if your linux box is properly configured for internet or not !! if you are able to browse  then you have to configure your clients to use proxy ...

So wht I mean that internet should be connected to linux box then your clients will connect through this linux box to internet using proxy !

Now in your client's browser put ip address of squid box and port 3128 as you are using default port and you should be able to use internet on your  clients.

[tomamodi]

yes i try that but unable to brows from client i give proxy 10.0.0.22:3128

then i see in log there is req from other computer reach there but from squid it didnt come back i  also make file as you explain  for  rc.nat

next will be hope finish tommorow

thankyou again for your kind help

[tomamodi]

this is access.log

[Ricky]

This means that proxy is fine but your proxy box is not connected to internet . First make sure that proxy box is properly connected to internet ie. you can surf net on it as it is your server to internet to other clients.

[tomamodi]

Dear RICKY

Dear Ricky

[Ricky]

Well you don't need to restart .. better use -k reconfigure !!

[Ricky]

or you can restart squid..

-k restart
