No, it's not hopelessly messed up. You have the default config and you need to tweak it. If squid can't find a FQDN for the machine it's running on (no, "localhost" doesn't qualify), you must set the "visible_hostname" parameter in the config file so it can use it when sending out error messages. So, either set a hostname in the regular manner or put one in the squid config file. Regular manner: 1. Edit /etc/sysconfig/network and put in an FQDN: HOSTNAME=hostname.domain.com That will make it "take" on subsequent reboots 2. As root, run "hostname hostname.domain.com" to set the name immediately. > I think the best thing to do is yum remove squid and hope that it gets > everything, then reinstall squid.

Probably an older version of squid which was a bit more "relaxed" as to what was needed in the config file. If you want to contact me off-list and tell me how you want squid to run, I'll send you an appropriate squid config file for V2.6-STABLE17 (the latest F8 version). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Principal Engineer rstevens@xxxxxxxxxxxx - - CDN Systems, Internap, Inc. http://www.internap.com - - - - There are only 10 kinds of people in the world -- those who - - understand binary and those who don't - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
