README.SBo - configuration help for squid from SlackBuilds.org
|
|
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
|
|
If you need to start squid at boot, make sure /etc/rc.d/rc.squid is
|
|
executable and add the following to /etc/rc.d/rc.local:
|
|
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.squid ]; then
|
|
/etc/rc.d/rc.squid start
|
|
fi
|
|
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
|
|
Uncomment and edit the following lines in /etc/squid.conf:
|
|
|
|
http_port <port> <option>
|
|
|
|
Set <port> to the port you want Squid to listen on, default is 3128
|
|
|
|
Set <option> to 'transparent' if you want to make Squid a
|
|
transparent proxy through the use of IPTables DNAT/REDIRECT rules.
|
|
Note that this now replaces the older method of using httpd_accel.
|
|
Leave blank otherwise.
|
|
|
|
cache_peer, never_direct/always_direct
|
|
|
|
If you have a parent cache, put it here. The administrators of the
|
|
parent cache typically provided you with instructions. You should
|
|
always ask permission before adding a parent cache. See also the
|
|
never_direct/always_direct directives.
|
|
|
|
Note, if you don't have a cache_peer, you'll most likely need to use
|
|
'always_direct allow all'
|
|
|
|
cache_dir <storage> /var/log/squid/cache <mem> <L1> <L2>
|
|
|
|
Set <storage> to 'aufs' if you want an asynchronous storage facility
|
|
that allows Squid to access the disk without blocking; otherwise
|
|
use 'ufs' here.
|
|
|
|
Set <mem> to the number of megabytes you want Squid to use for its
|
|
cache, default is '100'
|
|
|
|
Set <L1> to the number of top-level directories to use for the cache,
|
|
default is '16'
|
|
|
|
Set <L2> to the number of sub-directories to use for the cache,
|
|
default is '256'
|
|
|
|
acl, http_access, icp_access
|
|
|
|
Access control lists. This is important because it prevents people
|
|
from stealing your network resources. To fill in the
|
|
"allowed_hosts" ACL, use your network address (for instance
|
|
192.168.10.0 and your network mask.
|
|
|
|
acl manager proto cache_object
|
|
acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/32
|
|
acl localnet src 192.168.10.0/24
|
|
|
|
http_access allow manager localhost
|
|
http_access deny manager
|
|
http_access allow localnet
|
|
http_access deny all
|
|
|
|
icp_access allow localnet
|
|
icp_access deny all
|
|
|
|
cache_mgr
|
|
|
|
Put here the e-mail address of the manager:
|
|
|
|
cache_effective_user
|
|
|
|
If you must start Squid as root, find a safe user and group to run
|
|
as after startup (typically "nobody" and "nogroup"). Do not use
|
|
"root", for security reasons.
|
|
|
|
visible_hostname
|
|
|
|
The host name you advertise for the cache.
|
|
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
|
|
After editing squid.conf to your liking, run Squid from the command
|
|
line TWICE:
|
|
|
|
% /usr/sbin/squid -z
|
|
% /usr/sbin/squid
|
|
|
|
Check in the cache.log (/var/log/squid/cache.log) that
|
|
everything is all right.
