How do I do that then, ping a web page or something?
Telnet (or I prefer nc - netcat), to port 3130 on localhost, and just hit enter a few times, or request a page (type 'GET HTTP://www.google.com/ HTTP1.1' IIRC).
I think I'll do that, I want to use one pc as a proxy/gateway, and use a second pc as a workstation getting web pages over a local network
It's a one line rule that will remove the need to set up clients on the network. Just have a rule the redirects all port 80 traffic though squid, as I say, there will be examples of this in the ip[tables|chains] docs.
I had a look at 'man squid', and a summary was that the config file should be self explainitory, looked at the config file, it's all written in network geekaneese (which I dont speak too well), is there a squid idiot's guide or something?
Well, explain what you need, and email the sample config to me or the list. I have set uup squid a few times, but this was about 18 months ago, however I'm sure I can hack a working prduct. The other option would be to gimme an account on your box, the choice is yours. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Ian Christian E-Mail: pookey at pookey dot co dot uk Tech Officer for Termisoc PGP Key ID: 0xD09C10ED ----------------------------------------------------------------- GCC d s: a-- C+++ UL++ P+ !E W++ N+ w M-- PS PGP+ t+ e>++ h+ z** send email to sig at pookey dot co dot uk for full sig. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe.
